Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

Got over 20 hours of detention this week and stuck at a wmt live unload presently with 40 other bobtails on the staging area in Indiana, is this an Easter week thing or what? Detention doesn't cut it and doesn't even come close to potential driving miles earned...

 

I had $300 of detention last week, on one load! First got sent to the wrong place, address on bols matched what dispatch sent me. Actual customer was 20 mi from address given. Got there a day late, was there 4 hrs, refused 2pallets of product that I had to wait until the following day to find out what to do with. this week was great, at least with load/unload times. Even the customer I expected to be a problem got me in and out in a reasonable amount of time. Miles were meh though. If you're at the auburn Walmart, that's about right for them, last 2 times I been there, got in an hour later than my appointment. Usually there 4 or 5 hrs

 

Called safety to ask about...camera in truck rumors ...safety said yes camera in all trucks...soon as they find a forward facing one they like..

 

Asked my terminal...if I needed oil...and wasn't near a shop to get some...would I be reimbursed if cash purchased a gallon...they said no...then called breakdown about it...they said only way to get a gallon...would be to get work order at a truck stop shop ??? ...do they think im going to sell the oil at flea market.... Creaffer micromanagement strikes again

 

Hoping both my twic and hazmat will be ready when I get home for hometime. Been notified that they both were approved so just waiting on thr system to get them to me.

On another note had a bit of luck today. Had $5 in my wallet and decided to buy a scratch off. Got $20 from it and can finally retire

 

That’s the same exact one I have in my truck. Since my company has all volvos and with the way they are wired my safety director said they’ll only stay on for an hour after the truck is shut off.
