    I hate hauling these certain trailers to a different place because this guard is so slow delibrately.You better plan on waiting there at the window a good 15 minutes to a half hr before she even acknowledges you're right there looking at her waiting for her to get off her lazy ### and do something.I often wonder why she does'nt get fired for being such a rude disrespectful bytch.One driver almost got fired for telling her off.Well shoot there is no reason for making drivers wait the way she does when she's not doing anything.The last time I was there she was busy justa talking about nothing for a good 20 minutes.I seen another guy sitting at his desk,I peek in the window and said sir could you plz help me guess the person normally here does'nt see me hoping that would get her attention but it did'nt.

    I dealt with one guard at General Mills in Albuquerque who took 10 minutes to inspect the trailer when you dropped it off. The other security guards would just peek in and note if it needed to be swept or not. this guy got up in and did a full fledged inspection!

    I would agree. But after pouring a gallon of honey on multiple guards.

    I'm leaning more toward just kicking one of them in the ###.

    FWIW when I delivered to the Home Depot on Valentines day in McDonough, GA, one of the female security guards gave me some Valentine candy. I tell you pimpin' ain't easy, lol!

    That's no excuse.They don't like their job then find something their suited for.No need to take their sour attitudes out on the trk drivers.We have to deal with grumpy cust and traffic all day every day but we are forced to be pleasant as the guards should be as well.

    I don't work a job that deals with the public every minute of the day.

    For the same reason that some of these "non people persons" shouldn't be security guards.

    My money is on people that have trouble dealing with other people, generally find jobs that don't place them in that situation.

    But you can ALWAYS count on an ###hole seeking out these types of jobs.

    Thanks to the TSA, truckers are no longer the lead story in the news now days. Prostitution rings, drugs, theft, pedophiles, thugs.....just read the stories about the TSA.

    How many truckers with attitudes have come through before you and caused the guard to get into a bad mood?

    I see plenty of other truckers with attitudes in the truck stops and out on the road.
