Bad firms to tip at!

Anyone tipped a box at premdoor Barnsley recently?
Had a altercation with jobsworth after refusing to sit inside a small 3x3 wooden shed with leaves all over the floor, no ventilation.
I offered to sit outside shed but jobs worth said not unless I wore safety glasses( mine). A more reasonable member of staff offered me use of their canteen, I was on my way there when jobsworth made smart remark about drivers
I retorted that I was a human being not a [zb] animal. Load refused barred from site happy days[emoji3].
Anyone else fed up of being treated like a ■■■■■■■■■■■■■?

My hero!

If it’s my first visit to somewhere and they treat me badly. I investigate why.

I would love to meet the other gentleman as there are normally two stories.

I would say 3 sides.

Each person’s and then the truth which is usually somewhere in the middle

I had the misfortune of working for at DHL once when it was freezing cold only choice available was sitting in noisy puddle jumper with engine running or in a heated portacabin with a television, only to be told by some jobsworth that it was for staff only… needlessly to say after a couple of arguments when I refused to either leave the hut or turn the engine off (not sure which now) I was escorted of site by a nice security guard… I guess they only needed a driver for half a day…

You’ve taken a while to make your first post so you must have been mad! Getting barred from crap drops is a result in my book!

No quite happy to read others posts, but this place was a nightmare, seemed to be out to make things difficult for drivers.

No excuse for bad manners. If you’re polite and matter of fact then I’m more than happy to leave any site that doesn’t want whatever I might be delivering.

Any firm that the first thing they say “we’res hi viz drive” or “have you read site rules”.

And when you ask for the toilet, they point to the smelly thunder box over there.

Well known rdc HODDESDON, walked up ramp to office ,asked fella what to do with keys,his reply did security give you a bit of paper ,me yes they did,him it tells you on there, didnt you read it,me no, well then ,me how can I read it if I can’t read, not a word said funny look followed by put your keys on the hock by the ramp

I’ve just tipped at Co op Andover, when I got there I was informed that I can no longer sit in the vehicle whilst being tipped. I didn’t kick off I asked politely what had changed, had there been an incident which brought about this change? Nobody in goods in could actually answer the question so I told them what had changed; I told them that they’d recently employed a raft of fast track graduates who weren’t clever enough to do the job but were clever enough to realise that they had to be seen to be doing something to justify their wages, hence dicking around on the periphery and implementing ridiculous rule changes.

This made all the cold store lads laugh but also made a few of the spotty children sat at their computer terminals look uncomfortable.

Been there many times over the past 20+ years both delivering board/timber from Hull Docks and also collecting product. Never had a problem, wouldn’t say it was made difficult for drivers.

If you can’t read you shouldn’t be driving a truck for your own safety.

Can’t agree with you there Connor. Most signs you come across whilst driving are pictorial, you only need to remember what each one means.

What complete ballhocks. Most foreigners can’t read English and do fine. So do most ■■■■■■. When they crash, it’s usually because they’re crap drivers, not because they’re illiterate.

Edit: looks like we can’t say ■■■■■■ so let’s say thieving travelling folk :laughing:
