    Depends what the freight is. Back in the day when I started it was REALLY, REALLY F up. Think my personal best was 8 hours. Maybe 10.

    H.E.B. in San Antonio will always be the undisputed champion for cruel but not unusual treatment of drivers / carriers.

    Depends if you got there slightly late. Moment they don’t have to pay detention they make you wait all night.

    I delivered to a receiver in Newark for my home load. Got there on time but ended up waiting 24 hours before I even got a door. The place was packed with trucks parking on the streets. Think it had something to do with Good Friday.
