Fix the l/h bids. Some less than 200 miles. Bids can cover 500 miles easy and my barn only has 3 that do. How many drivers you need?
SWEET !!! kinda seems to be the pattern at all the barns now days , between Manager's & Supervisors & Driver's Quitting it's really a joke any more !!
Only people making money here are the suit and tie people! Nothing will ever change with their mentality..... what we've given back has all gone into their piggy banks!!!!
: off the truck because of no pallet jack.they would go out of business before they gave you a pennyAn easy, cheap contribution to a driver's overall morale and productivity would be straps, load bars and pallet jacks. I wonder how many drivers a day go through the same disgusted thought process when you cant even get the basic stuff you need to get your load out on the street. A disgusted start of the day rolls on through as you gotta restack a skid because of no strap or try to figure out how to get the ::
Obviously we want our pay and pension back. Throw us a bone the economy is booming. Show the driver that the company plans to perform and I can guarantee you will get a driver that will do the same.

Plain & Simple IF there's NO pallet jack the Freight comes back to the barn period , Don't hurt yourself trying to unload it & then get a warning letter for getting hurt ! I don't play there games of No Equipment to do your job , I just tell them can't Del. freight without the tools to do our job !
Years ago, I did that at a non-union job, and suddenly pallet jacks started showing up, then we all had one. I expected to get fired over it, but didn't. Didn't care either. Give me proper equipment or kiss it.Plain & Simple IF there's NO pallet jack the Freight comes back to the barn period , Don't hurt yourself trying to unload it & then get a warning letter for getting hurt !

No , it;s Loose on the floor boxes that you have fingerprint each one and read the label , VERY time consuming , it's ::
:: freight , and point is WHY are we wasting O.T. labor hours on this crap , when we can't move good pallet freight ?? When you can't hire driver's and are just hiring luke warm bodies to stand around & take smoke breaks , what good is it going after hand freight ??Partner. If yrc or Holland start handling ctn freight for Amazon to home deliver, I will take my bag off and show my face...No , it;s Loose on the floor boxes that you have fingerprint each one and read the label , VERY time consuming , it's :::
All I know is that we are picking up the Amazon crap & spending extra O.T. to sort it and the send it to Joliet & other terminals , which heard a rumor they are like 60 loads behind ?? and on the BOL it clearly says AMAZON ??? so never say never , the bag could be coming off ?
Its all inbound to Amazon. All skids. Its nothing to "sort". You cant believe 85% of what wong says. He makes it up as he goes along.
If going to Joliet, there is a possibility it is going right up the road to the Amazon DC in Bolingbrook. Bag still on, for now...
