Those ######## probably just wanted to screw with you because you weren't wearing a mask and they don't have the balls to drive around without one.

The boss says so, my ###.

I'd bet a thousand bucks it's not a rule where @Mattflat362 delivered, otherwise the guy would have got his boss. He was bluffing, and got called on it. Just a forklift driver with a ####ty job, a superiority complex, and is poopy about having to wear a mask all day like some prisoner, so he tried to pass on some of that misery to a truck driver.

For sure this Corona nonsense has brought the Karen out in a lot of people.

The only time i wear my mask while unloading is when im sweeping up fine particulate and said mask is a resporator. Some loads like crushed glass or coke dust arent things i want to breath in.

I haven’t worn a mask at anytime and not going too. I just tell them I am medically not able and they leave me alone

The feds exempt truckers driving alone. Not so with teams, but I haven't heard of any enforcement actions on teams yet.

Here we go. I was informed today by this female "security guard" that I must have a mask on, while on property. She's exempt from the rules though. Just spreading her coodies all around. What a joke this nonsense is.

Me: Wake up at 6am and build air. Roll through shippers gate. Climb on deck to start untarping. Tow motor rolls up. I say good morning man!

Him: Do you have a mask.

Me: Yes in my truck.

Him: You need to have it on.

Me: I don't wear a mask outside period.

Him: The boss says you have to.

Me: Go get em.

Him: He is over in that building but you can't go in.

Me: Do you want the load or not because I will eat 2k right now and return it to Ohio AND be dammed (won't let me spell it correctly) to eternal hell before I wear my mask in the rain outside while untarping a load. I will put it on when you sign the BOL but that is it.

Him: Sorry man it is not me it is the owner.

Me: That is why I want to see him face to face to tell him that it isn't going to happen. Do you want the load or not?

Him: Ok man.

This was in New York and the very first time I have ever heard anything so absurd. It just won't fly with me and never will.

I am getting to the point where my list of places I won't go is getting as long as the places I will go.

Rant over.

I am 100% sure owners of that place don't give a rats about masks, you know who do?
Stupid government state, who mandate that everyone will have to wear mask or you (owner of a place) will face a huge fine.
So first blame government. First they giving everyone money, then they trying "legally" take it back

Yes and no. This was a company taking it one step further on their own.
