    I want to warn everyone about the Walmart DC 6065 in Harrisonville, MO.

    If you get detention pay while there and need to have your paper work time stamped!

    Watch these guys. They falsified the times on my paper work yesterday .
    I got into the office at 1510 the papers were stamped 1545.
    They then show that my paperwork was complete at 1705. I was not called till 1756, I walked straight over there to get my paperwork, gave them the commcheck and the time on the receipt for the lumper fees (I was standing right there watching him print it out) was 1655. So when I asked the fat ####### how come the time on the receipt was 15 minutes before the paper work was done, he closed the window on me.
    When I called my DM about it, he informed me "he didn't care"!
    Anyway, long story short, cover your ### when your there!

    Ahhh shoot. I wish y'all were with Swift. I'd suggest our fleet. As you know I think the world of our FM.


    If y'all ever change to Swift, let me know.

    Right about now - we would be VERY tempted!! However we have at least a year we need to do because of our schooling... I (for one) will definately keep it in mind though!!

    I hear ya!

    For some reason I thought y'all had gone with Swift and I had my DM on the phone saying "I know a team! I know a team!" Then I double checked on who you were with. LOL

    <placing you behind me> That is another idea... but we will see how things go. I'm going to go see if there is any busy work (local stuff) they can get me doing while I wait for K to get here... and we are DEFINATELY going to change DMs... we already have one lined up.... so that 'should' help. Also just getting together will help too. However we don't know what a year or two will bring :biggrin_25519:
     
    Trilleth Thanks this.

    Because this company only pays the driver $16 per hour in 15 minute shots to unload a trailer....
    I have lumped loads before and I am NOT doing it for $16 per hour....

    I don't understand why this company will pay Costco $155 to unload 4 pallets and they think that is fine but will only pay the Driver $8 to do the same....

    $16 an hr!!! Holy cow Batman, my company, will only pay $1 per thousand lbs. Really dont want you lumping here. Also, I guess its a good thing (NOT) that my company doesn't pay dentetion either, since my next load is taking me to Harrisonville.

    I don't believe Walmart lets you lump yourself anyway.
