    At a little truck stop west of Chippewa Falls. Hopefully nobody will take the spot to my left during the night or getting out in the morning will be more than a little challenging. They made this spaces awfully close to the building.

    TB, this is your boss' fault, he needs to put a halt to this kind of petty bs. How can you do your job properly if she is allowed free rein to raid your resources? :mad:

    Her favorite drivers get days off?!?!

    If my dispatcher was giving me days off I would be MAD...

    Days off in the middle of the work week is my first sign to start job hunting...

    Van TX.... lunch break. Helped a Swifty back in before leaving Ft Worth... became a community project after I started. Everyone was waiting to see how much damage he was going to do.

    I agree, Hammer. In a way I think he is afraid to say anything to her. There are a lot of the drivers that won't talk to her because they don't want to make her mad. They've seen what happens to their miles if they do.

    In all honesty, looking back to when I started up to now, I think she's jealous that there is another woman in the office. She's always been the only gal. That's the type of petty crap I don't like about working with women. I'm there to do my job and get a paycheck, and help out where/when needed for other stuff.


    It's a long weekend, so they want it extended. Funny thing is, she was complaining about it yesterday morning about how everyone always wants an extra day at the holidays, but she has loads to cover and she doesn't care if they get extra days. Instead she's giving certain dedicated drivers the day off and expecting my guys to cover it. My drivers work just as hard, if not harder some days, but they aren't supposed to get any extra days, and my loads are of no concern to her. The boss has told her numerous times not to use them, but she does it anyway.
