Good luck new member. I'd wonder if there is more regulation regarding your chosen occupation than Anti-feds.

 

[BFrank]

I fixed it, I think

I did that for about 4 years. It can be crazy but fun to.

Be safe.

Good Luck!

What they won't teach you in trucking school:

If you are pushing a deadline to get loaded/unloaded, you may be able to get them to stick around a few minutes if you call straight into the warehouse. Particularly if you know them. You may have to slip them a $20.

But never on a Friday. If you're late on a Friday, you may have a long weekend.

You driving yet?

Yep. I can say from personal experience that works. I have offloaded late and gotten loaded early by greasing a few palms. It's amazing how much cooperation you can get from a guy on a warehouse dock if you slip him some cash. I usually start at fifty bucks and negotiate up from there.


Oh, yeah - but keep in mind... I absolutely DO NOT recommend this approach with cops.
