As a retired police officer, I must say you handled yourself professionally. Stated your side of the story calmly, without vulgarity...that...goes a loooong way. Those Sheriffs knew you were getting screwed without even having to know about the trucking industry. Walgreens were just being lazy and / or incompetent. A distribution center that resorts to calling the police because they can not off load half a a truck load of the same product efficiently says more about them then you. Walgreens ought to be ashamed of themselves.

[@meyatetana2973]

Used to unload trailers it does not take 3 hours to do that, a fully loaded 54ft trailer should only take 30min or so. Walgreens must have maning problems and should just hire people at what they are worth

[@TheEthiopian1987]

I would be ashamed if it was my company doing that to someone like this. If they were being not so nice, then take near on 2 hours to unload.

Same i work guard for shipping & receiving companies.. for the last 2yrs and man.. one place was a brewery and we clocked in & out 300+ trucks in 8hrs.. i had the most efficient shift to ever be posted there.. i was the 3rd in command.. the other 2 worked mornings.. ( they sucked at efficiency ) anywho and i always tried to treat truckers with the utmost respect knowing they have regulated clocks nothing they can do about it. So i try to make the process as smooth as possible for em. Where i am now.. i still do the same hell sometimes they see me sprinting across the property trying to run back to my position from inside the warehouse & they just yell.. take ya time.. no rush.. and im like ya sure!? They appreciate the effort ya know.. besides i used to run track & field so i think he was just surprised i made the attempt to run so far 😂😂

Back in the 80's I ran cross country for a major reefer carrier. One warehouse told me that I was to stay at their dock until they were good and ready to finish unloading my truck (I had been sitting at the dock for 3 hours by then). Called my dispatcher who contacted corporate. Not sure what they told him, but I got a beeper message to call dispatch. When I called, I was connected to the CEO of my company, who said "They want to play games, so this is what you do. pull out from the dock, close up and go to this address ( one of our drop yards). Drop that trailer, tke this newer one we have waiting for you. All deliveries to that warehouse are cancelled, they just voided our contract." So I pulled out, closed up and padlocked the trailer. As I was pulling away, the warehouse manager came out yelling for me to stop. I told them to call our 800 number and left. As far as I know, they couldn't get a contract with another company after that, as our CEO put the word out to everyone.

[@taterkaze9428]

CEO must have been the owner too, not just a hired gun, and we're talking 40 years ago when blue-collar workers were still considered human.

[@bobwhite6488]

Drove in the 80s as well. Pulled a load for kraft foods going to a federal AAFEEs warehouse. Got there an hour early, they snidely told me as much and they were crazy backed up with trucks. I waited for a door and they kept stalling me even up 2 hrs past my appt. I told them it was $300 an hour detention fee for every hour after 2 from the appt start time starting the first minute after. They told me they won't pay that and I wasn't allowed to leave. I called the freight forwarder and told them I had other freight appts and they needed to fix it. They called around and called back and told me to leave and drop it at their lot at another location. When I went to leave you have to enter and leave thru a gated guarded fenced lot. The manager at AAFEEs told the gate guards not to let me leave. I called the police and threatened to have them charged with unlawful restraint. The cops came and ordered them to open the gate. Mind you this is on Federal Gov't. property. I had the cops get everyone's name involved, the managers, the gate guards, in preventing me from leaving and told them they were going to hear from my lawyer and added as accessories in the lawsuit. That was just to see the look on their faces especially when the police said after they admitted not letting me leave that they could arrest them on the spot. Some jacka** warehouse mgr gov't employee thinking he was the big man in charge. Was paid for the delivery and 3 hrs detention. Went back 6 mths later and was early and left in just over an hour.

@@bobwhite6488 Good for you. I have always said that if someone tries to pull shit, hold them accountable, it doesn't matter if it is something minor or not, because odds are if they get away with it once they will do it again, but if you make them pay for their BS, the people responsible learn fast or get promoted to unemployment.

Police also have to make sure that civil arguments are being handled lawfully. IE investigate if his forced detention is legal ( the lock ). The reality is that the police are being called in to handle a dispute. Sometimes the person calling the police is the one who is legally in the wrong.

[@bigmacdoubleyouv]

Im no lawyer, but if they were violating a federal law with that two hour rule, seems like it was more than a civil matter.

[@rpruneau68]

@@bigmacdoubleyouv Its not really a thing; drivers just feel they are more knowledgeable then they are. This is common occurrence with many issues while looking at the reality of this situation. I heard the same thing when I started my OTR career back in early 2000's about it being illegal to carry a firearm in a CMV. All these seasoned professionals and steering wheel holders would state how you couldn't legally carry a firearm. None of them were able to answer a few simple questions or cite legal statute and governing authority were said laws exist or are being regulated. To test the validity of the federal detention argument there are a few logical questions to consider with regard to the statement as proposed: 1. Federal law. What is the statue number and who is the governing authority? FMCSA, DOT, OSHA, IRS, ATF. There is a common practice or industry standard practice but in reality NO such STATUTE exists. But for argument sake, let's say one does on a Federal level the following question should be answered: 2. Governing Authority. Who is the governing authority and who has jurisdictional control. i.e. who do you contact to enforce such matters, the F.B.I., D.O.T., O.S.H.A., A.T.F., F.E.M.A., I.R.S. or County, local or State police? 3. What is the Process. Is there a specific federal court that listens to these cases and or is there a special magistrate that is in charge and is this criminal or civil? Again, neither cause NO SUCH ORDINANCE EXISTS... Just looking at a few things logically shows how absurd the mere statement of such is, but happens all the time and can't convince those who want to be argumentative of the absurdity of their stubborn illogical and egotistical thinking. Yes it sucks, that we as drivers are at the mercy of some BS practices and have to eat crow and I don't disagree that is not right. But in reality, you are making $1800 or whatever similar value for hauling a half trailer worth of semi-lightweight product a few hours and few hundred miles away. Drop the load, record detention times and put in for compensation and move on. Next time that load comes up its a negotiating point to drive the rate up a few hundred dollars or refuse it altogether. These are choices we have control over. Be grateful you have the opportunity to provide a good living for you and your family and stop sweating the small stuff and control that what we are able. On a side note; the trailer glad hand lock was probably placed on there as a safety precaution since, which you decided was not necessary, since you had obviously been up to them several times to inform them as to your displeasure of waiting for such a long period. It was insurance that an irate driver didn't couple back up to trailer and pull out while a tow motor happened to be completing the operation. Not sympathizing with Walgreens practices, but I also wouldn't want to see a warehouse worker get injured because an irate driver who felt justified, decided to pull his trailer from a dock door without informing them and causing a preventable accident. Two sides to a coin.

He could have the US Marshals their the ones to call because it's a federal law. A driver was told by an officer that he had to move his truck. Driver refused because he was out of hours.

Usually it was complaints about the bad logistics coming from the main office dispatchers. Truckers should be getting treated like gold because they are invaluable to everyone, not "We're calling the police if you try to complain to us about us wasting your time due to our cheap strategy..."

[@PWN_Nation]

Companies...Definitely. Also cities and states...shutting down rest stops, DOT harassment, and so much more.

[@justgary4342]

Come on now. Not ALL truckers should be treated like gold. I worked for at least a decade unloading and loading trucks. A few were kicked out of the yard after yelling matches about stupid bull shit without even being unloaded. One place I was at had a lot of LTL loads and they would always make us move stuff around and/or drive through a maze on a trailer to get to our stuff and would get all pissy about possible damage. So I made a waiver the driver had to sign that stated that if they made us touch anyone else's product or drive around anyone else's product that we would not be held liable for any damages. Don't think it held any actual legal standing but we didn't have to do deal with that much more after that. Loads magically started appearing on the lip of the trailer when they'd show up. Wouldn't even drop the plate. Drive up, pick it off, check, sign papers, and he or she would be on their way in less than five minutes.

Very similar to a situation like working an accident on the highway, and someone decides to use the emergency lane /shoulder to bypass traffic. Officer sees it and has the person pull over, takes their drivers license and such and then gives them a ticket. It wasn't the officers original purpose for being there but it happened in his presence, or was investigated by him, it is still a legitimate use of police authority.

Walmart would make us wait and some would even tell us to turn off the reefer which is against the law for cold chain product. They would give use an appointment and make you wait until that appointment. They would also refuse a load if you were 30 minutes late. I remember one time it was snowing really bad and they roads were awful. Highway speeds were down to 30 Mph. They refused the load then complained the next day that they were out of milk during a snow storm. LOL funniest thing when my boss told them we were overloaded with deliveries and they would either have to pay an extra fee for delivery or wait until the next delivery day which was once a week for this location. I heard that the manager that refused me was fired by the district. Never had an issue after that at this location.

For the past 18 years at my job, I've been occasionally driving a crew-cab super-duty with a 21-foot cargo trailer. At 40+ feet, it's far smaller than these big rigs, but big enough that I need to use the truck/trailer side of highway rest stops and travel plazas. It gave me a new awareness of what truckers have to deal with from ignorant and stupid drivers on the road. In my experience, the average trucker is more skilled and more considerate than 90% of the other drivers out there. Just finished a 16-month voluntary reassignment working in my state agency's COVID-response logistics warehouse. There were times when product was coming in so fast we couldn't put it away before the next load came in (and some times when more stuff came in than we had space to store). NEVER did we make a trucker sit for hours while we shuffled product into rack slots or broke it down by lots. Our inbound crew would drop pallets of product in the aisles between the racks, call over outbound or QA crew with hand jacks to supplement the forklifts, or whatever they had to do to get a trailer unloaded and the driver back on the road. That said, we did reject one trailer that looked like it was loaded using one of those mulch-launcher systems. Several hundred 40-pound cases of PPE all thrown in randomly with no pallets. Even the driver looked at it and said "WTH were they thinking?"

The gladhand locks all use the same key. I used to go to Walmart dc’s all the time and they would lock your gladhands and you would have to wait for a spotter truck to unlock it. I’d unlock them and keep them just for kicks. I probably have 75-to 100 of them in my collection.

That Walgreens guy was a Karen. Instead of talking to you man-to-man he calls the police because he can't handle his own business. Police should be called only for emergencies or violations of the law, like holding your trailer with a lock, not because a trucker has a complaint that they don't want to deal with.

[@jazzsounds8159]

Yes he was a Karen, a arse who has never driven a truck.

You could also tell he probably doesn't command much respect inside the warehouse. Tail wagging the dog situation. Like the man is only there for a check and some benefits

My dad says many drivers result from "driver mills," basically, the industry is being saturated with low-quality drivers. He has been driving for nearly 30 years, including as a fuel truck driver in the United States Army. He was also taught by old-timers who started their carer in rigs that had two sticks. I actually met one of those old-timers a few years back; as he came to pick up a trailer used for storage at a local thrift store, I was impressed with the love of driving that kept I'm doing it for forty-some od years.

[@amac6483]

In the UK the government is going to extend drivers driving time, in July 2021, for a limited period they say, to cover a shortage of drivers. Just what drivers want, to work more hours. And in another news item, Iceland, the country, has tried getting people to work a 4 day week, get paid for a 5 day week and productivity creased and people were happier. How about Trying that, truckers work just 4 days a week but get paid for 5 ?

[@KentuckyRanger]

This reminds me of my early days of trucking, back in the 80s. I was never so happy as the day I quit PST, driving OTR, and went to work for Clearwater Trucking, an LTL company. 6 years later, I became a line driver for Kimberly Clark, and that was an awesome job as well, mostly drop and hook. The 2 years I worked for PST, most all my deliveries were live load, and back then, you were at the warehouses mercy, and many made you unload it yourself, or hire a lumper. Delivering to grocery and department store warehouses were the worst! I doesn't surprise me, that they attempted to lock your trailer, because office logistic pencil pushers have no idea what's going on. They're like dispatchers. All they know, is they think they're totally in charge, and that the driver is a lump of meat behind the wheel, that is to be controlled, and not listened to. I'm so glad that federal regulations have changed, to help the driver do their job, and put these idiots in their place. The last 11 years of my trucking career was hauling parts for Toyota in Georgetown Kentucky. That was an awesome job, because the JIT contracts Toyota had with suppliers were very strict, and only allow them to detain us 15 min past our window times. When the time limit was reached, we were to leave, with or without their freight. In the 11 years I worked there, that only happened once, and while the supplier was furious over it, there was nothing they could do, accept watch my tail lights fade into the dark... The year I was injured, and had to retire, Toyota was implementing a new cross dock system, which was even better for me, because instead of doing a trip with 3~8 pick ups, I only had to go to one cross dock, and get loaded from all the suppliers in the area, that were picked up by local drivers. Sorry I got wordy, this video just brought back a lot of memories from my years of trucking... LOL!

[@All4Grogg]

Thank FSMA and "Secure Facility" for that, anyone with a Walmart contract has to lock their facility down, which means somebody would have to sign you in and follow you to the bathroom, stand around until you finish, walk you out. Very few facilities have time for that bullshit and they weren't built with this in mind. We had a porta potty for drivers, then the company just took it away. The receivers are screwed if any drivers need to take a shit and those who sit in offices sure as hell aren't going to do it.

1 guy and a pallet jack, 12 minutes - max. More time went into finding a lock and sending a guy out to lock your trailer than getting teh 2 or 3 pallets out of your truck

[@chubbysumo2230]

its not that simple, they are short staffing to cut costs, and are not allowed to hand unload trailers, and they have to count everything as it comes off the truck. I doubt anyone was even unloading trucks, and that guy that came over to tell him to go "sit in the truck" was powertripping.

What did they possibly hope to accomplish by "F'ING" with a driver. People who work in orifices do all kinds of damage to a company that the higher ups haven't a clue about. And wonder where their bottom line went.

[@SteveKasian]

No, no, no, no, no, son. It goes like this: 1 guy and a pallet jack, on break. Comes off break, waits for 3 more guys who are at lunch. Now, 3 guys, a pallet jack, and a fork lift. Must finish unrelated paperwork before unloading container. Now, 2 guys and a pallet jack - 3rd guy needed to go help someone with his fork lift. 2 guys and a pallet jack can't start unloading until 3rd guy comes back, cuz he's got the fork lift. Now, it's break time for all 3 guys. They come back to unload container an hour later because boss man put them on another task. Once again, 3 guys, a pallet jack, and a fork lift. Start unloading container. Pallet is damaged, so they need to get another pallet to transfer goods to. Call 4th guy to come over with a new pallet, but he needs to finish unloading his container b4 he can bring the pallet... on his fork lift. .... and on, and on, and on...

41 years of trucking is my experience before I retired a lot of distribution warehouses want specific items stacked a Pacific way so one a truck comes in with random pallets on it they need to be broke down and stack the appropriate way so the warehousing facility can put them in their rack system the biggest problem the individual here has here is a lack of communication and a lack of knowledge exactly how the trucking business works he's an inexperienced person that wants to cry about his bad planning.

@@63076topher From what I can tell, it seems that everyone is a little bit right here. Every facility has their own methods of Inventory Control and receiving. Fortunately, I had the luxury of being able to park any load on the dock before check in and count, which in turn gave a good turn for the driver. On the flip side, if the unloader has to check in by pallet, that crap goes about as quick as cold molasses going uphill in January.

[@KA317S]

@@JohnCunningham-sy5ug If they want product sorted a certain way then that's something the receiver needs to coordinate with the shipper of the product. If they cant get that worked out before product hits a truck and the receiver wants things sorted a certain way that's on them.. Detaining a truck for hours on end while they sort pallets on the dock is pointless.. The driver has nothing to do with the product or its sorting.
