Zero to Minus Ten . . . .

Zero to Minus Ten . . . .

Sunday, April 23rd, 2017 Approximately 1438 - 1932 PM . . . .

Someone from Sterilite BHM emailed/contacted Transport America Weekend Dispatch Associates RELLA and GALE requesting a freight release number from Walmart. Gale from TA sent me two messages concerning the request via QualComm stating TA could not obtain a freight release number until Monday; and she sent me a message to leave Sterilite BHM and come back Monday morning to pickup my assigned WM Load.

I returned Monday and no one on duty knows what happened Sunday; and they are claiming no one from Sterilite BHM would have emailed TA and requested a freight release number from Walmart.

Fortunate for me, I document everything!!! (Drivers You Better Document Everything Just In Case You May Have to File Legal Pursuits.) I had Gale at TA to confirm that I was to leave Sterilite BHM and to Return Monday Morning.

IRONICALLY and at the time the confirmation was received from Gale at TA, Sterilite BHM stated the company's forklift driver went to load my truck and I wasn't on door #50.

A course I wasn't on door #50 because someone there told TA they needed a freight release #; then TA asked me to leave the premise of Sterilite BHM . . . . And right at that moment according to Sterilite's paperwork I was pulling off the door as the shipping manager and the forklift driver decide my trailer can be loaded without the freight release #.

This visit at Sterilite Birmingham is Bazaar. The people here are liars and they play games with drivers D.O.T. Hours of Service.

STERILITE BHM is the worst of the worst of bad shipping customers I've encountered in the ten years I've been a commercial driver.

Monday, April 24th, 2017, 1100 and I am still here waiting to be loaded.
