    Explain the situation to Ta...., we'll just use suffered traumatic brain death at birth instead, at LS.

    so, take the wins with the losses, smile, and drive on knowing you won't have to get up when someone tells you to, to go to a job that you hate, to support a life you hate even more.
    We win. One way or the other

    I used knew a buddy he worked for a company would tell them to make him wait longer than an hour he will leave. Pretty self-explanatory he gets to a shipper they want him to wait hour goes on he takes his hour leaves, says he has something do they called him said they ready 6 hours later.
    He said okay I will be ready in 6 hours they are like what the hell you mean in 6 hours well I am at a Days Inn sleeping for the night and in my underwear. They call the company, the company calls the driver unable to get ahold till morning, he picks up come 8 am when the DM back in say to him well I waited for my reset.

    They needed that load out yesterday well it was midnight so they failed I thought they were the B team so I gave them time to prepare. They had him reschedule and they did it under an hour. how that happened so quickly 2nd time was beyond him and me. They must need it go out fast. I thought about doing that myself my prob is I never call there bluff one these days I will lol

    If your living in Detroit you are probably not the happiest person in the country. I would cherish a lifetime ban. How many people could earn a lifetime ban ??? You are special. Well played driver , well played.

    I would have said the to 'B', I guess u dont want ur product, I'll continue on to my next stop them. Then I would have started call my dm, if she didn't change her tune, I would have told my dm what happened and continue on.

    Lol this is hilarious. Poland Springs and Shoprite banned me.
    I’m currently trying to get myself banned from US Foods, they just won’t do it.

    When one of these lowlifes tell you to do something out of their anger or attitude. Ask them “Are you enforcing the company policy or your opinion”. Works every time, and they stutter.

    this is a good trend banned from certain places my god how smart is this I can avoid certain places by acting like I normally do I have been banned before for literally fighting with a guard before told him he was gonna give my ID before I left that guard shack. and into the shipper. they called the law enforcement and one the sheriffs arrested him, I sued the company got a smile on my face when I was told I could no longer come on any of there properties.

    Nicely done. I see way to many grown men allow themselves to be disrespected and treated like garbage on account of there "job" be it by customers or management. Sometimes you have to draw the line.

    The Walmart/Sams DC in Buckeye, AZ always loads tail heavy. Every load I’ve pulled out of there I had the tandems slammed to the rear. If you are picking up there for Cali...good luck.
