    Not sure yet. It was a surprise to the planners that I would be rolling this week, so they're working on a plan to route me home.

    Same as it was at Creaffer. They'll run me until I say uncle after they get me home for my initial 'pick up my stuff' hometime.

    But what will Snackbar do without the micro management? I thought that was his favorite part of Crete???

    Recap-

    When I turned in the Shaffer truck, I was told I wouldn't be getting my performance bonus for last quarter. Earlier this week, Deland's fleet manager (who I always got along with very well, and was the only person in management above my Asset Manager's pay grade I had any respect for), she sent the quarterly text telling me how much bonus I was getting. Well, this weeks paystub came out and....the bonus is on there, so, either Deland's #2 was misinformed, or Deland's #1 has some influence and got it paid. So, like my posts about a company have always been about what's going on, bad or good...here is something good...Shaffer paid me what they owed me...so that bitter taste I had in my mouth when I left has been sweetened a bit. However, I still stand by my statement that I will NEVER set foot on Acklie property ever again, unless I am delivering something to them.

    What will I do without hand holding, nannying and micromanaging?

    Well, this place had never screwed me over before so I gave them benefit of the doubt...until Sunday morning. Plus I don't put all the blame for my situation on them. The other 50% of my sitting falls squarely on weekend ops. They had no reason to set me. The replacement ld I was given had a 24/7 pickup time...including weekends. Seeing as it was offered and dispatched way before standard business hours means they had it and sat on it, knowing I was available to get it and run. The receiver also was fcfs 24/7 so any "excuse" about delivery scheduling would be called out as BS.
     
    dwells40, jethro712, Bumper and 2 others Thank this.
