    they don't let you park in Columbus

    no, with my trainer it was mostly drop and hooks, I dont think we had 1 live load the whole month

    I didn't break the seals of the trailers, I broke into the empty trailers that were empty and waiting to be loaded and stole them...since they steal the load locks anyway and give them to the yard guys who resell them for $10 cash

    I did an experiment another load there, I dropped the trailer there and I got the exact same trailer back without load locks...obviously they steal them

    Was 200 over on steers and didn't get #####ed at in Columbus. They weren't bad at all, except lack of bathrooms, I can live with that.

    Wrong again...here's a lesson for you...if the customer refuses to make the load legal..the. I have every right to refuse true load and that has happen quite often there and you know what my company did to me about it???......nothing because they can't force me to take an illegal load....take this as some advice..it'll help you in this situation in the future .

    They do let you park at Columbus unless drivers for your company ruined it for your company, since you had dropped trailers there are only a handful of companies you could be with. As for taking the load locks out of the empty, never had a problem at Miller or Bud, always had empties with load locks in them never had them try to resell me any. Even if it was drop and hooks, you still should have been securing the loads, or learning how to its a failure on yours and your trainers part.

    If you don't have enough common sense to figure out how to use a load lock, it's a scary thought that you are driving an 80,000 lb truck around
     
    drvrtech77, jbatmick and X-Country Thank this.
