GM, shiny happy people. Delivered, and now sitting in the yard 10th out. Methinks it's time for a nap after driving through all the crazy storms last night. See y'all later!

I might be wrong I might be right . but the way I see it load 1 & john .. has built wonderful faciltys here at the yard . but it seems some do not appreciate it , by leaving the bathroom in a mess & wet towels on the floor , wash bay one greasy mess and the biggest thing I saw this morning in the laundry room wash basin the taps broken this pee me off .. this is my home away from home like all of us , & it only takes a few more minutes to wash the floor in wash bay , only take a few seconds to walk back up stairs to put your towel in the wet hamper bin , and might have been by accident but how does a glass tap break and screw still inside it and the several piece,s of it on the floor but now still on top of wash basin after I pick it all up , & wet towel in hamper and wash bay floor cleaned ,,, come on guys & gal this is your home that helps you relax when your in the Detroit area treat it like you would if your at home in your own area of the country ...

problem is wombat, the ones doing that stuff probably are treating it as if they were home. a sloppy pig is a sloppy pig. hard to change ones ways of caring unless of course, you catch them and request they do it in a very firm manner. click record on your phone when having this conversation about the way they left things if you catch them. im sure if presented, someone would have a talk with them about their actions.

I've only used the facilities here twice....but I always made sure the shower floor was dry/clean, and the laundry was left like I found it or in better condition. Lots of people have to use these, and they are provided as a courtesy from John and Load One....people need to remember that. :cool:

I remember it was a towel issue and I said maybe someone just forgot to take them upstairs an honest mistake:)

Hmmm. I get up every day between 0730 and 0830 and stay up till around midnight or 0030.
Lotta time in between there to call for a load.
So, to call me for a load to bid on at 2am going 300 miles straight through...I say again, bid on...and then give me a turn down because I say no, I can't do it too tired...means I wouldn't feel safe driving it in my sleep...
Well, Mr. Dispatcher...take your turndown and plant it firmly in your...:p
