    OK, finally time to make a post so those of you who are employed by USA Truck to point out to your fellow drivers that you guy's really need to start learning how to properly operate your truck, control it and follow simple directions at a shipper or receiver such as International Paper in Mansfield, LA. Do NOT park in the curve back by warehouse #2. Your not only blocking emergency vehicals from being able to get around you in case of fire or alarm of a fire which happens more often than you would think. Not only that but your blocking Tango local truck's from entering and exiting the dock area as we DO have higher priority. Same goes if you are sent to the Slack yard warehouse and turned away from the mill. There is a huge 4x8 sign that is white with black letters stating not to park in the curve. Pay attention and learn to read.

    As well, if you see a Tango daycab pulling out of door's 1,2 o 3, do not attempt to try and jump into one of those door's as you will only find your self being frustrated from being run out of such door after the work put forth to get in it. Don't bother. Your only wasting your time. If we don't tell you to move it, one of the forklift operators will. If you can't follow simple directions when you get on the scales and check in at the gate then your only succeeding in pissing off multipul people with showing your ignorance. Will be contacting both companies and letting them aware of such activites.

    Also, do not enter the dock area without a hard hat and safety glasses. You will be told to leave and not return without them. You are also informed at the front gate that you must have them on at all times outside of the truck. Simple directions so don't get all pissed off when your told to leave. It's your fault. Not theirs. Blame yourself.

    If this is not you and you follow the rules and directions given, then this does not apply to you.
