Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

a bird decided to hit my windshield this morning thankfully, it didn’t smash it. it hit hard enough for trigger my dash camera to go off

 

I’m guessing Lincoln doesn’t believe in what somebody says. They’re gonna do something. They’re gonna do it because they just tried to call me again. Wanted to know if I’m gonna be on time I’ve got nine hours on my clock for today and I’m 558 miles from the customer. The appointment is for 1400 tomorrow… If they can’t do the math that’s their problem I told them I’m not responding to them. I guess they’re realizing I wasn’t joking,

 

Guess driver doesn't throw out trash...until it blocks window

 

Dispatch called again and i decided to answer & ask them what the heck is the problem?..they said they have been instructed by the vp to call every driver on every tyson load daily if not more to ask if they’re going to be ontime..

i stated you can track me and frankly being 450mi away from tyson with 25hrs till appointment time is ludicrous..

i told them it’s Lincoln’s problem and and and maybe raise hiring standards and stop hiring bottom of the barrel drivers and expect them to be worth a darn and that is you folks problem not mine and hung up..

 

and that’s one way to get blocked lol. I don’t care if you’re dispatch, don’t freaking harass me!

what did Lady Gaga used to say? “I’m kinda busy! Stop callin, stop callin!”

tyson’s dispatch never harassed me over our loads lol. Maybe only on wip/need for product stuff, when the plant’ll be waiting for it. And that was only a brief call or usually a message, as it should be

 

Is because we have some idiot drivers Who can’t make ontime delivery no matter what…Tyson has threatened to cut contract.. But they know who they are.

 

It doesn’t matter. One person messes it up, and everyone pays the price. Especially at a mega carrier.

 

I know but I’m not putting up with it and my stance hasn’t changed

 

There should be a driver rating system to allow dispatch to see who’s a dependable driver.

 

I get it. But you’ll always put up with it while you work there.
