Go into a place of business anywhere and do the same. I bet the business will call the police on you

If the shoe was on the other foot and lets say...

The driver walks into the receiver starts cussing and pounds both fists on the desk. I could see the receiver calling the police, but because it was the receiver that did this its not a good reason to call the police?

If you walk into a shipper and do that, you are in the wrong line of work. The driver came in early, and I would bet a dollar to donut he came in with an attitude. Been doing this to long, and seen one to many clowns out here... Much more to this story... Just saying.

One is trespassing, the other is not. So yes, there's a difference.

It probably is more to it. Maybe will find out later, or not

I had the big boss at a receiver cone out and tell me " If you can't get into that dock, you're the worst truck driver in the United States. "
Then went on to add " I absolutely will not unload you off site, you can just take the #### back to Phoenix. "

Didn't even say good morning, what's the situation, just came off with that BS, and a huge attitude.

Had to stand up to him, the agent, and Landstar itself.

Come to find out the trailer I had, had been high centered on a RR crossing about a year ago. It had the landing gear replaced, with the wrong ones, and now only had maybe 5" clearance.

SO

After they all insult my ancestors for 4 or 5 hours, Landstar figures it out, and everyone is extremely apologetic.

Told everyone involved to take their aplogies and shove them in their #####.

Told that agent never call me again, I don't give a F what it is. And I'd done probably 6 loads for him to that point.

Yeah, don't know if even topping out the airbags would have gotten you over that hump!

And the driver comes in irate, they are no longer wanted there. Customer is private property.

Sir you must leave, because you are being aggressive. If you dont leave, we will call the cops for trespassing.

See, i can come up with stories too.

Back in the day, they would physically throw my A S S out. Been there and done that... I learnt my lesson.

Get a police scanner at home or in the truck and you will hear people calling the police for EVERYTHING. Hell they call the police on us just because we might park in a parking lot or a shopping center

I wonder what you achieved. Was it worth it to be a big PITA because you showed up early and busted everyone’s balls? Not really.

I’m held up by shippers all the time. They get a 2 hour window for free. Then I can apply for detention time. That’s part of my job. Whenever I get a loading appointment I’m pretty sure my company made it earlier than it is. That’s normal because “early is on-time” is a company motto. It’s just part of the game.

What you did by being a pain in the ### and ridiculously calling police is make your company look bad. Can you not handle a rude person? Learn some skills. Learn how to get what you really want.

His appointment time was 0700. He showed up at 0630. His appointment time was not 0900.
