We are in a time crunch. Our PU Appt was at 7:30PM (DH of 135 miles) with Del at 5AM next day 350 miles away. We get to PU and the shipper says, "we won't load you until 12 AM". We ask why (there are no trucks on the premises) and they reply, "We will be taking our break". We tell them, "We won't be able to deliver on time because we will run out of HOS". They don't care.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS WORLD?! Ah...what am I saying? WELCOME TO THE TRUCKING INDUSTRY FOLKS!
No one gives a CRAP

Pick up the phone and call ur dispatcher and let them know. It can all be rescheduled. As its the shippers fault. Get u some detention time as well . dont stress the little things like that cuz it happens alot unfortunatly. Roll with the punches get delivered n move on to thr next load. Take note of this shipper ur at and put them on what i call the "#### you list". Dont accept anymore loads there. Unfortunatly that list can get kind of long after awhile. A dang shame if u ask me.good luck and be safe driver.
Vic Firth, clausland, Suspect Zero and 9 others Thank this. -

But you weren't late...you were at PU by scheduled time. How long it takes them to load you
is on them, not you. You called, got delivery rescheduled to a different time, got paid to wait and rest,
Seems like a win. You use "we"...are you a team? Do teams run out of HOS?
Unless you meant you were late on the Rescheduled appt time?Tb0n3, Suspect Zero, CrappieJunkie and 1 other person Thank this. -
