    Yep.

    My personal favorite is when they load the stops in the wrong order, or mix the pallets around.

    Man, the receivers just love that!

    Well that turned into the biggest fubar I've dealt with ever! Called the receiver to confirm the delivery time for tomorrow since everything else on this load has been a mess so far.

    They said just bring it on in and they'll unload me today. Well they unloaded the product pretty fast and give me the paperwork and day have a nice day. I'm pulled from the dock and was closing the doors and they come running out telling me to back up to the dock again. I ask why and get a very rude just do it.

    Ok, I back the truck back up and go inside and ask what's up. "Oh our supervisor is checking something good on." I go back out to the truck and pull away from the door so they can't load anything back on me until I have information on what's going on. I'm no fool most days, lol.

    Well then they come out to my truck demanding I give them the paperwork back back into the door because they are rejecting the entire load. I look at them and go, "I'm sorry, let me make a phone call first". I get a "No you must back up right now!"

    I get back in my truck and lock the door so I can make a phone call. Now it's 3 guys and the security guard banging on my door telling me I have to back up and give them the paperwork back. I roll down the window and tell them not until I get word from the people on the other end of this phone with regards what they want me to do.

    Now one of the guys and the security guard go and close and lock the gate saying I can't leave at all. I look at them point blank and said "that's OK, I'll call the cops and see what they have to say about that. I have signed bills saying you excepted everything and I was good to go." The guard goes, "Ummm, don't do that, let me go talk to a supervisor". Meanwhile I'm on the phone with claims and they are kind of chuckling at this and ask for a name of a supervisor so she can call the customer and figure out what's going on. I start asking for a supervisor and they all scatter like roaches when the lights come in, lol.

    Eventually the guard tells me the gate is open and I can leave at any time. The supervisor from quality control wouldn't even talk to me directly,she would talk to the other workers right there next to me but wouldn't say a #### word to me or tell I could go. She had to tell the worker to tell me to let him leave.

    What a frecked up place this was.
