ust read this article about how to reduce truck detention time and I gotta say, it’s a bunch of BS. First of all, they talk about communication like it’s some magic solution. Well, guess what? I communicate with the shippers and receivers all the time, and they still don’t give a damn about my schedule. They make me wait for hours, sometimes even days, and then they act like they’re doing me a favor by loading or unloading my truck.
And what’s this about staggering schedules? Are they kidding me? Do they think I have all the time in the world to pick up and deliver loads? Do they think I can just show up whenever I want and expect to be served? No, sir. I have to follow the appointment times that are given to me by the shippers and receivers, and they are usually very tight and inflexible.
