    No it’s a new system Certain customers (Home Depot) are using for checking in and out at the DM’s. Instead of the Guard shack processing the paperwork,we get to do it thru Peoplenet.

    It is.
    The office gives us the paperwork,we check in on the app,scan paperwork,seal.Then when we get to receiver,check in as load delivered.
    Now we drive the truck,and do office work(For free)

    I would get an old flip phone to use for company business. If they want you to have a phone that can have apps installed, they can provide it.
     
    Deadwood and O.Henry Thank this.

    It's suppose to be dry thru the weekend. I am north of Seattle now and it's chilly and they only had snow on the shoulder going over Snoqualmie.
