    Yesterday I was having a crappy day and thinking about how much I hate my job, until I spotted a XPO driver pulled off the side of state highway pulling a pallet loaded to the max up a extremely steep gravel driveway that was about 150 yards long. Just wanted to thank you boys for what y’all do

    All while the person that lives there probably just stood back and watched with one hand in his pocket and the other with his thumb up his ###.

    That’s internet shoppers for you.

    That is one of the reasons I don't do P&D, especially since we dont have electric pallet jacks.

    Moving heavy pallets around doesn't sound fun to me, and then add some snow in the mix. You can count me out.

    Linehaul is just to easy.

    Find out the total shipping cost for each package sitting in the box and then ask me why I should care that someone need to do some work to deliver it. :p someone is making money. Not my problem if it isn't you.

    They help, or it gets left at the BOTTOM of the driveway. Not my job to push it to the top. Only to deliver it.
