I Hate Walmart!!!!!

EarthBrown what company do you work for?

 

EarthBrown how long have you driven a rig?

 

I know what you mean about Wal-mart, and I came into this post late but I am curious? you said you were getting paid for the all day sitting... Does your company pay for lay over? in most cases lay over pay is more money then a measaly detention pay. My company pays lay over if you go over 8 hours sit time. It might be worth asking about. Good luck

 

Betty Ann who do you work for?

 

I've had alot of dealings with Wal-Mart. In my opinion their empoyees are the must "over worked and underpaid" individuals around. They don't get in a hurry for ANYTHING most of the time.

 

Yeah, Wal-mart sucks & they know it, but they don't care...you can't beat success on the stock exchange!!

 

i get detention after 2.... whats the prob?

 

I have delivered to several Walmart DC's and have as of yet to have one single delivery go right.

It takes forever to get through the guardshack only to be told to dock, dolly down, and disconnect.

Now, Walmart will not accept you more than an hour early. So if they take 45 minutes checking the 3 trucks before you, you better hurry! Now you have to dock and disconnect. Then you go to the window. Now I have never been able to just walk up to the window and hand them my paperwork. Usually there is one driver or two ahead of me.

They COMPLETELY process the drivers papers before they get to me! I have been "window late" even though I stood there for 30 minutes waiting on the receiving crew to call me up.

The next time you go to a Walmart, look at what you are signing. Usually mine say my load was done within 2 hours. The funny part is it takes them 5 hours to call me on the CB.

The last Walmart load I delivered said my paperwork was ready at the window 20 minutes before it was. I stood there watching, and waiting, so I know when it got there. I refused to sign when they told me to.
