as a city driver in atl we have been instructed by management......"do not idle your trucks"......."do not idle your trucks"........."do not idle your trucks".......for any reason.......but when i am at a customers location i will see a sales rep car for yellow and the temp. is about 90 degrees and his company car is idleing anywhere from 5 mins to one hour........why can they?.......whats fair for the goose is fair for the gander.....:biglaugh:........come monday i will bring this up big time in the shift meeting.......:hysterical:.....:chairshot:.........nuff said
 
We have a driver at our terminal who found a sales rep doing the same thing. He got in, took the keys and locked the car. When Yellow found out it was him, he got a 3 day suspension.

When asked about it, he said next time, he will get in it and turn the heater on.:hysterical:

Oh Boy, Just Ended Anoter 10 Hour Shift Stripping Inbound Freight. I Do Have To Say That In The Last Two Months I Have Seen More Sales On The Streets. Now My Main Gripe Is Who Is Going To Train The Inbreds At Jmi That You Cannot Balance Freight On Pryamids, And Expect It To Move 800 Miles Without Shifting. Also That A 800 Pound Skid Will Have No Mercy Sitting On A Skid Weighing 200 Pounds Of Rubbermaid. Is It The Dummies Loading Or The Lack Of Supervision?

Guys on the dock know how to load it. At some locations, supervisors put so much pressure on speed, that handling goes down. Please don't short change the customers.

If a trailer is loaded properly, everything will be faster at the next facility (no exceptions to track, no shipments to recover).

We need to figure out how to be fast without ever sacrificing handling.

Are your supervisors dummies ?

Our supervisors are just like us in many ways here at LCP. For example, Union Steward Rodney B. hangs out with supervising professional Fred W. all of the time, because they both undertand us all. Also, Union Steward Rodney B. put in for a supervisor position in HBG in this COO and then he will be like supervising professional Fred W. Finally, we have had other teamsters putting in for it too, like James Q and etc. Overall, their just like us and very well trained professionals who work very well with the men doing the work. :shades:

Don't be a Pinkerton!
