    Just adds flavor right?
    Let’s be honest we’re truck drivers at some point we had to have eaten done paint chips as a child. Right

    The consideration of this agent is really unprecedented.

    It's one of the one's that loves to send out emails on ETA's.

    So's as I'm rolling out the gate of that receiver, phone rings, OM answers it.

    One of the reasons it took so long was the order was short 21 cases, so they counted it several times.

    So's the girl in customer service at that agent, that loves WTF stupid emails, says," Can you go back and ask what numbers, their numbers aren't the shippers."

    And The OM was like," Our problem is we need to be in San Antonio at 0800 and it's 560 miles away."

    Airhead says," But it's hard for me to get a hold of them, and we moved your appointment back to 1000."

    And The OM was like," So we will actually have time to stop and take a piss now?" " Don't forget to add the detention, best of luck with that receiver. Bye."

    I mean we're only at about 8 hours for the day at that point, with another 10 to go, driving.

    So can we make it a 19 or 20 hour day, so some stupid DC doesn't have to do her job???

    Yes this really happened. But they value BCO's. Just ask them.

    Not saying the OM is over weight or anything, seriously 2 cheeseburgers.

    I had to work for a guy a little more than usual a month or so back and got behind over 60 pages. When I finally dug out of that hole I swore never again even if I have to retire again!!
