    Don't you just want to kick that crap out in their parking lot? As far as time goes; yes, I am with you in theory but it's not going to happen. As others have said, price it in or don't haul loads to them anymore. I won't go to Kroger in Houston anymore for this very reason plus I can't price in the risk of damage to my equipment due to their ridiculously tight docks!

    o i have done it more than once

    i love the "no sweeping out trailer onto dock" nonsense

    as if it is my responsibily to drive around town looking for empty lots or filling up a Petro dumpster with their garbage

    being kicked off of their property is an honor


    "next rant" sending drivers to use outhouses (porta potties)

    i just left a pepsi place in Big Spring TX with that setup

    my experience has shown me, if they only let you use a porta potty, the relationship will only go downhill from there (but it is better than places that have NO FACILITIES for drivers)'
    thats when i wish i had a bad case of the runs
