    Right. But what I was referring to was the customer who has no address posted, nor the name of his outfit. And then the addresses on bills that are obviously impossible for them to be correct.
    As far as pickup drivers even being bothered to see that things are correct on their paperwork......well, whadaya want fer a nickle, anywho.......:confused:

    Sister and I went to do some errands.
    Got spray heads for the gray water sprinklers.
    Got some groceries.
    And got my Dad's favorite Popeyes Chicken.
    Will at least go into Houston to turn in paperwork and get my check. Based upon getting a text from Roland on Friday I imagine I'll be running somewhere....

    I hate delivering to restaurants near the beach, tight alleyways even for a 28 ft 2 axle, people always #####ing about your truck. You have to block people so you have to move. Restaurants are tiny, kitchen is packed, list goes on...

    Got a new one. Delivered 26 cases to a house, yes a house(mind you I work for a grocery/food company) and I now drag a 40' trailer and a tandem tractor daily, LOL. That was interesting. Road went from asphalt to dirt 1/4 mile before his house. Oh, and I had to back into the driveway since everything goes into the garage.

    Oh forget that, Lipari might be the most impressive operation ever they cover routes from Warren, MI to Baltimore everyday out of one warehouse that's a lot of ground. How many trucks are in there fleet?
