    They must of sent the info, cause after 1.5 hours in the dock the light went red and took around 2 hours to get the green.

    Was sent over to another cold storage just 15 miles away for a 2 stop load headed to Kansas. Was suppose to be ready at 9pm but when I arrive they haven't even started on it yet. Trailer was staged in the dock but product not pulled yet. Was told maybe 1 - 2 hours before they start.

    Miss my 3 - 4 day long hauls.

    They looked at it Sunday, said it had to go to the dealer, which are backed up for weeks. Then on Monday after we started making plans to swap trucks, the main shop boss decided they could fix it in house, but never said a word to me or the office.

    It only took until Mobile for me to get so pissed off at this nanny POS that I messaged Deland that I don't care how unreliable my other truck is, I want it back...there is no driving these Crete/Shaffer nanny mobiles. I had a headache within 20 min. And I don't know who's more ignorant, the tards who program these trucks, or the morons who keep spec'g and buying the same crap every year.(in Lincoln)

    This 2 stopper going to be nothing but trouble.

    3 hours after pick up, they still haven't started on my load yet. Also from what I can see when looking up reviews, the 2 grocery warehouses I'm also going too will take a very long time.

    Let's just say that the shipping office here at this us cold storage has a bunch of Chinese takeout menus because of how long the wait is...

    After going back into the office and asking nicely how much longer it will take they finally changed my light to red. Hopefully I won't be here much longer.

    I dont think they even send the truck builders specs. They just tell them to send the cheapest truck they can possibly buy. Driver comfort be darned.

    I'm not sure, but I think the Melton next to me might have missed a day of load securement 101 training

    It just occurred to me what driving these automated nanny mobiles for this company compares to...it's like a Hells Angels gang being forced to install training wheels on their hogs, and wear bright pink high viz tutu's for safety.
