    So you were there for 2 hours?

    Sounds pretty good.

    Wait until it takes you 6-8 hours or more to Load/Unload at a place.
     
    Joetro Thanks this.

    No, it took several hours (three I think) to unload, which I was ok with. I was just peeved that I could've left and made my next appointment easier if I hadn't sat so long waiting for a green light. And the second time the gate turned me away for being 20 minutes early, only one other truck at the gate, then when I got there they were scrambling to check in 10 trucks at once. Seems like everyone's life could've been easier if I had checked in the first time

    I go to the Puyallup FM DC regularly and it isn't as bad as most others. In fact, for a Kroger facility, I kind of like it, but, as a regular, I've built a rapport with them. Clackamas sucks and I try to avoid going there.

    To answer the question as to what's the problem? Kroger.

    Puyallup is not that bad. Only thing with them is trying to get your paperwork signed off once the lumpers are done.

    Clackamas just sucks balls.

    They're owned by Kroger. One of the two worst receivers on the face of the earth!
    (the other being Target)
    I have done full 10 hour breaks while sitting in the dock at several different Krogers as well as Target.
    Give me a Walmart any day!
