    20 hours, Was 10-12 years ago at Nunes Vegetables ,Yuma AZ but was my dumb fault ; I showed up at the shipper wearing a blue T-shirt with 'Border Patrol' print on the back: they abandoned the forklifts and disappeared.

    I guess that the warehouse, NUNES VEGETABLES, YUMA ARIZONA, had a disproportionate number of "undocumented workers" on their payroll at the time.

    How well did that pay to sit while they got new cranes?

    Man I HATE to hear that--this is 2d Chobani location that seems to be tough on drivers--I really LIKE their product--along with the owner and the corporate structure--not to mention the charity work etc....I've been VERY impressed with this company since I first started hearing about them...So I hope they get their shipping act together!

    they cannot tow a truck with someone inside of it. If they can coerce you to get out of the truck, then they can tow it.
