I noticed when hourly paid drivers hit the dock many times the receiving staff stops unloading the OTR truck sitting their that isn't going to cost them as much to have wait the extra time , and jump right on that hourly paid drivers load .

Sterilite Corp, Clinton, SC. Had a 23:30 appt, had me bump dock at 4am, didn't even get a red light until 11am, didn't get a green light until 1pm. There wasn't a worker in there including office staff over 25 years old, all the guys and gals where busy flirting and not working, and people leaning on fork lifts just cutting up with jokes.

and don't you just love the fact: you're suppose to remain calm, cool, collected the whole time--Professional. Meanwhile, in the back of your mind- you know this weeks paycheck gonna be a day short--about 200.00 b4 taxes that's all! (maybe you'll get $40.00 dollars detention...then again...maybe not) You did get to sleep a good 10hrs while there didn't you?
