    Anyone been banned from shippers or receivers. I seriously thought about it after the security guard threatened me with it over the dumbest thing. I’ve had nothing but problems with this places wanna be cops since I’ve been there.

    Did you sweep your trailer off in the middle of the lot like you owned the place?

    i actually did just that, at the Chelmsford, MA UPS location. i had to pick up an empty trailer we dropped off earlier that week. they left pallets (probably everyone else's) and lots and lots of plastic wrap in the trailer.

    i parked it by the back of the lot, up near the fencing, and heave'd ho, all the trash they put there. then went to the pick up i had to make.

    my philosophy is, it's your load, it's your trash.

    i left a nice tall pile of garbage for them.

    boss man never heard a word about it.

    that' ll be the day i haul someone's trash

    You catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar.

    Security guard at the gate. One of those who think they’re guarding Fort Knox and not a bunch of citrus. Same same lady I’ve had problems with over the same stupid stuff before. First time I went there I had no idea where to go and she didn’t like that I asked. Or for not answering their phantom phone calls so she had to walk to get me from the staging area. I apparently have some sort of attitude she doesn’t appreciate. Thing is everyone else at this place is super cool. Just her.
