Lolololol omg. Just when I thought I'd heard it all. You know someone had to have done that.

 

Have a 7 am appt at Graphic packaging in Brooklyn Ohio. Decided to over night here so I can get load delivered tomorrow evening. Pulling in here I was shocked!! They actually removed the telephone poles that were in front of the docks. Only reason to get rid of them was to make drivers lives easier and they did it. Last time here watched a driver brush up against one.

 

Maybe they're trying to find ways to make up for the misery they're apparently causing drivers in Carol Stream lately. I loaded there a lot and never had a bad experience there but apparently I'm in the minority.

 

I have never had a problem in carol stream either. Worst I have ever had to endure is being 3rd or 4th in line. They load pretty quick.

 

I was there pretty early for an appointment once and had to wait awhile. But I was so early for my appointment that they hadn't even picked my load yet and I think there was one or maybe two ahead of me.

 

Never been to the back of Superior Beverage in Glenwillow until today. Compared to the front I had all the room in the world to back in to a dock.

 

The front of that place is kind of sneaky. It looks like you got all the room in the world and you really don't.

 

Yeah you run out of room quick there, the grass or what’s left of it tells a story.

 

Yup!

 

You cross the wrong colored line and the tower calls law enforcement, law enforcement kindly escorts you off of the property after the requisite tithe.
I've seen it done and it doesn't matter if you're a truck driver or work there. They take it seriously and rightfully so.
