<p>[QUOTE=&quot;drivingmissdaisy, post: 11688743, member: 261367&quot;]There is no way I am the only one who has had such a horrible experience at this place. And the problem is.....it&#039;s not a one time horrible experience, it&#039;s EVERY SINGLE TIME THEY SEND ME THERE.</p><p><br /></p><p>Every time it&#039;s a live load taking 4-5 hours. That&#039;s &quot;the norm.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Well one time I go there, they give me a few docks to choose from, of course all are full so I pick a dock close to the ones they have listed as that is what they tell you to do. I sit for 2 hours without anything hitting the truck. I go inside the ware house and ask what&#039;s going on. The guy then proceeds to tell me that between dock such and such and such and such is a barrier wall in the warehouse and it&#039;s like 2 different warehouses and while I did pick a dock numerically that was close to my assigned dock, I picked one in the &quot;other half&quot; of the warehouse so they didn&#039;t even know I was there. I then moved to where they told me to and sat for 3 more hours until I was loaded. There went 5 hours.</p><p><br /></p><p>Fast forward to today. I get this load on my QC box at 11:15am while getting unloaded on the other side of BR. As soon as I get unloaded I boogey to KTM for my 12pm appt. I arrive at about 12:10. I could not have physically arrived at this location any earlier than this. I stand outside the shipping office as only one driver is allowed inside at a time at the kiosk. That driver is hispanic and doesn&#039;t understand it and has to be shown what to do so it takes several minutes. Two more drivers get in and out and it&#039;s my turn. I have the wrong pickup number so I leave the shipping office and call dispatch. They give me the right one and I return to the kiosk and another driver is in there. I wait for him to clear and I input my information. It prints out the paperwork and they give me a set of doors to try. I back in and wait 3 hours without anything happening. Now understand, they haven&#039;t mentioned ANYTHING to me other than the doors to try. I talk to a forklift driver who says they have logged me as late. I said I wasn&#039;t late. So I go to the shipping office and ask them WTF is going on. They said I checked in at 12:35pm. My appt was at noon. They give a 30 min grace period. I said I was standing outside for 20 minutes waiting to get in here. They said nope, you&#039;re late doesn&#039;t matter. I got so mad I said I&#039;m not coming back. Making a driver wait outside for 20 minutes to get to a kiosk that he MUST enter his information into quickly or else he will be put at the bottom of the loading list and be there for 5 hours is BULLPOOP. I was there, I couldn&#039;t get in, that is NOT my fault. Had I arrived and immediately been able to get to the kiosk and find my PU number was wrong I would have had plenty of time to call real fast and get the right one and put it in. But I didn&#039;t even KNOW my PU number was wrong until it was basically too late.</p><p><br /></p><p>And to top it off, I&#039;m 50 miles from my house the DAY BEFORE I put in to be home and I&#039;m out for weeks at the time. I begged them to just send me home from the previous receiver and I&#039;ll start my home time a day early and they refused. So I got to sit for 5 hours and run out of drive time at this hell hole that is KTN. And even better yet, I call dispatch and they don&#039;t have a load to get me home from the yard that I&#039;m bringing this load to tomorrow morning.</p><p><br /></p><p>And then they had the audacity to tell me that &quot;losing my cool&quot; doesn&#039;t represent the company well and he says that needs to stop immediately. I said lying about me being late isn&#039;t cool and I won&#039;t tolerate that, is that clear? Them saying I was late is a service failure for my company which looks just as bad as me fighting that out with them in the office when I wasn&#039;t late. I won&#039;t let people push me around. If I am late, I&#039;ll admit it and take my lashings. But when I&#039;m NOT LATE and am being punished like I WAS late, I will fight back every single time.</p><p><br /></p><p>They can fire me if they want to, I could care less. Nobody is going to treat me like that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
