Grocery team driving HOS tips/tricks

I’m sorry that you’re not satisfied. I understand where you’re coming from. I experienced similar feelings while hauling fuel. Sometimes you just having to be willing to make sacrifices, and it’s more a matter of whether you can live with them and what that compromise affords you.

Other times we have to let go of what we think we have figured out about a situation, be open to the unknown, and take risks.

It sounds like you’ve received plenty of feedback and just need to come to terms with the best decision for you.

Good luck fellow trucker.

 

Any advice on choosing between grocery or food service?

 

I don’t understand the question.

 

Grocery is almost always ramps.

Food Service can be (depends on how it's set up) electric pallet jacks and liftgates.

liftgates are way way way easier on your knees.

Food service with chains (not mom and pops) also tend to have the same set up. (every McDonands looks the same, you know where to go just by glancing how the thing is situated in teh lot, mom and pops all bets are off)

 

Tell you the truth if you put up with your part of the problem, record all conversations with dispatch and safety, tell them there being recorded. Then sue the crap out of them and buy your own truck with the money.
