dont do what one of our drivers did, ask questions

haha, we had a guy do almost the same thing. Backed into the dock beside the one that had an empty dropped in it. The loader loaded the wrong trailer and then came out and told him he was good to go.

This place would pay for a full load but often it was very light and sometimes only a few skids in the nose. They would load with a hand jack so you'd hardly notice when they were going in and out of the trailer.

Not sure who ended up paying for that mistake but I know the driver never closed the doors without looking again.

 

I recently hauled a 3,000 lb load 1500 miles. The difference between that load and empty is near-zero.

Not saying the driver was without fault. How do you close the doors on a load without at least looking to see if the load might need load locks?

 

Yea not sure how you run a stop sign because you're lighting up but all right then.

 

Exactly how do you not look and make sure it's not like the leaning tower of Pisa in there? I get there's some light loads when your doing vans/reefers.
