    pretty much, but it also means we have no pull. If unit 234 of chain 6 wants it this way you have to do it because they complain up the chain and then it comes right back down my chain. (and you know what only rolls downhill).

    Usually (and I'm pretty sure everyone does this) I blame the warehouse. It's 99.9% true and the stores know it. Almost all the stores like the driver, and hate the warehouse.
     
    Mike2633 Thanks this.

    The warehouse is the closest thing to the literal version of the North Poll. Where I work they always complain to me, because the warehouse is well lets face it, it's like the horizon more of a concept really. The customers have never seen the warehouse, they have never been to the warehouse and most probably have no clue where the warehouse is. However usually it is true the warehouse was late, the transit trucks were late on and on and on it goes ha-ha!

    Anyhow, today here is my final thought, when you become a food service driver and you so happen to be me (new and struggling) you will have people walking up to you going "Are you okay? You look beat." I have bags under my eyes a mile deep. Today I had to do a random drug test and I partially feel asleep in the waiting room at the doctors office. Anyhow the doctor came out to get a patient and I'm lying there in the chair and the doctor looks at me with real concern and goes "Are you okay?" I must have looked really bad. I straightened up a little in my chair and said "Yes I'm fine thanks." The doctor went "Oh, okay."
