There was one line driver we canned from a different terminal. He would totally trash his truck when he ran over night. Always bought a chicken bucket and ate while driving. Chicken bones all over the floor and breading/grease kegged on the wheel/shifter. It was disgusting. The P&D driver that shared a truck with him flipped out multiple times. Yeah, it was so bad that terminals all around the region heard about it. Good riddance when we finally fired him.

On par with cigarette smokers. I'm a smoker. The idiots who decide to hot box the cab, use whatever as a ashtray, Burn holes in the seats. How F#&#%n hard is it too roll down the window? Have some common courtesy and clean the F^%$# windows. It's a 2 way street. Non-smokers aren't perfect either, But that's another topic and thread

Slip seating does suck mah balls at times. Especially slipping with a shorter guy who moves everything ( him thinking the opposite ), Mirrors/Seat etc. part of the game and sucks after doing a PT getting rolling on highway then notice AWE ######! forgot to move the Pass Convex ( screw it, I'll jump out at the customer).road_runner Thanks this. -
Mirrors? Dont use those. Not even while backing. I just use whatever my trailer is sideswiping as a guide to the dock/door. As for cigarette smoke, the smokers at my carrier tend to only slip seats with other smokers. My pet peeve is trash and spit bottles.
Shaggy Thanks this. -
Trailer? We don't use those. Strap everything on the catwalk.
We have 25 drivers for every account. Need no stinkin trailers.
Slip seating yah get youst to it, Always 1 person screwing it up
road_runner Thanks this. -
God... So slow. Had six bills last Friday. Then seven today. About two or three pickups on the way back. These six/seven hour shifts suck! Anyone else having a slowdown?

Ive been 10.5 to 11.5 hrs consistently

Well, it depends on where you are. But if my memory serves, we are in about the slowest time of year right now.
-
12-13.5 as usual for me

Hmmm... Must be a left coast thing. You guys have year round nice weather.
