Random LTL Rants (all are welcomed)

Your right. Maybe they hire in bunches. My buddies friend who got hired off the street a year ago said they needed 20-30. My other friend knows 2 guys from Sysco that went over recently. They told him a lot of people quit in the first month cause of the schedule. Also they don’t give you time to do a two week notice either. You got to be there on that date. Both people said this. One couldn’t give OD a notice he dropped OD and ran.

 

Rising Sun is a bit... KKK in case you weren't aware, used to be a sign outside of town warning specific types of people to be gone by sundown.

 

That right there is the best advice to P&D drivers at unfamiliar places.

 

I had a neighbor I grew up with move to Rising Sun. Also, did a route that went through there. I never got that vibe but it is rural Maryland so who knows. I was also making those deliveries in the middle of the night so my impression may be slightly off.

 

Yea that sucks man. I hated that when I had a city job. Even worse when it’s at a place with only one dock and the same moron is parked there every time I went there. The dock was actually just for my company to make deliveries plus the place was on lock down. Had to bang on multiple doors and make phone calls.

 

That’s awesome. Well done. I’ve blocked people parking on top of a tank at a gas station before. I asked them to move their car so I could make a delivery. They said no because they wanted to use the vacuum. My trailer was sticking out into the street creating a dangerous situation so I boxed them in for 40 minutes. Sometimes we get our happy moments in this career.
