Does walmart keep a record of drivers or is their relationship specific to my company? If I'm late, is it me that's late or my company? I'm just curious if too many lates damages my hire potential. Same for other companies, I suppose. Do they have a record of me in their system they can access for employment reasons? I hate being late picking up another person's appointment. of course I'll do it. I just want my opportunity to say, no fair!

If the people lived in fear of committing such crimes as being late, our economic system as a Nation should fail.
Being late in trucking creates all sorts of problems. But in the end it does not matter, that truck is there with the widgets and now the customer has to get it off you. Your company might be "Fined" a bunch of money because you were late. Sometimes there is firing. But ultimately, it has no bearing on your future life.
IF it's really bad they may black list you and that for you would be the end of your trucking to that particular kind of freight.
Otherwise your hire ability in anything you want to do proceeds as normal. Unless a company said they fired you because you were late. You will suffer a temporary unhireability within trucking for about up to 3 years. That's only temporary and easily worked around. -
If you are always late to customers like walmart, Albertsons or any big food distributors, without sending a late call. Yeah, you go bye bye really quick. These companies charge so much for being late. That if I charged them that much for me sitting there for hours. I'd be Justin Bieber's neighbor by now.
