Don’t you love people that make top dollar to take twice as long to do half as much work as everybody else?![]()

Yep, gets old. One of the main reasons I left. TM’s buddy was in an area next to mine and refused to pull a lift gate trailer. I always had one. I’d get pushed into his area to do deliveries in the morning and get bounced back for pickups in evening. I didn’t have a problem helping a guy out who’s slammed, but this was beyond the pale. Went to TM repeatedly to no avail. Went so far as to call WIL. Every other guy in that area went out with a lift gate and we had available ones but the brown noser never pulled one. Other factors led to me leaving but this situation was the straw that broke the camels back. Went in for 18 months or better. I’m much happier now. R&L was a good eight year run for me but it was time to move on. I’m enjoying the heck out of open deck!
Lonesome, Speed_Drums, MACK E-6 and 2 others Thank this. -

Well first ask can you hold up a middle lane? Ok passing slowly in the left lane? Can you sit on a fuel island for 45 minutes or longer? If it’s a day cab you really better have your S together. That job requires you to drive like a $&?! at all times. Can you handle that?
R&L is not for everyone. Especially anyone with a soul or knowledge of the other 7 BILLION on this planet.PacoTaco Thanks this. -
I don’t think they pay OT after 40 hours.

They don't pay OT after 100 hours! -
All LTL guys do this. I have a FedEx freight guy try to pass me every night. He's usually in left lane for about 7 miles. I now just back out of it and let him go EVERY night. -
