    There are some, like Shamrock, that it doesn't matter what you do, it is strictly by the time.
    Once in a blue moon they may work you in at the end of the day.
    Kroger ( Frys ) is the same.
    Walmart = Fuhget about it.

    That's Kroger satellite warehouse. They charge more than anyone for lumper, and take forever when you have an appointment.
    Yea, your probably screwed there.

    So I book the load with Hill Bros, the appt time was for today at 4am.2 days ago when I pick up the load, I was waiting to get loaded, the shipper told me that another company is trying to get the same load.But I was there first so I got the load. Now I found out that someone from Taylor Logistics rescheduled the load. Taylor logistics has nothing to do with this load.
