I don’t get the drivers who complain though when it takes 4-5 hour to tip but you can sit in the truck and watch tv, go to sleep, read a book and they’re getting paid by the hour. What’s the problem■■? You’re getting paid to do ■■■■ all. Lads on salary on the other hand I get where they’re coming from.
The only thing an RDC needs to invest in is a zb big concrete block with a stop sign on the top of it. The forkie places it in front of your vehicle before they enter the trailer, the driver can stay in his cab, the forkie brings your notes back when he moves the block, way too simple though.

That’s Morrisons way at Northampton.

Avoid them at all costs, as the majority seem to regard drivers as a lower form of life.When they say “your just a driver” point out they are “just a receptionist”
Doesn’t seem to go down too well.
Another good one to use is to grumpy old [zb] on security at gatehouses if they’re trying to be funny with you turn around and say, " You have only got a job here because you are cheaper than a padlock"
I like the padlock bit. At an old place of mine the security guards were contractors (like us) and were getting a bit obstructive. Our GM contacted their boss and said he was thinking of offering the customer free security guards (basically by moving traffic office into the gatehouse). They soon wound their necks in
I found the vast majority of tesco dc’s were crap. With the exception of avonmouth and widnes. Peterborough among the worst, 50 odd bays and 6 chairs in the waiting room that’s no bigger than my bathroom.
My favourites were Aldi and lidl as it’s a self tip so how long you spend there is kind of down to you.

That is exactly how it works at the Frigo terminal in Maputo and works a treat
If you smile at them and talk politley,it does wonders to speed things up.
You go in there lying about running out of hours to beat the queue.Expect to be made to wait.
I have seen drivers swearing at staff.
F that F this F this place.
What is all this must get home as it is Friday rubbish?So what if the wife has booked a table or you have to shampoo the dog or cat.
I like the way they Scribble a Signature on your notes, then get offended when I ask them for their name (Mr Scribble is no good on an XDA)
It’s now my Mission, to Wind them up by asking for them to print their names next to the signature.

Asda let you keep your keys and stay in the cab.
Heaven that is, especially when it takes them 3hrs to do the paperwork, I wake up feeling refreshed:mrgreen::lol:

Whilst I agree with this 99% of the time - some RDC staff are just naturally ■■■■■■ As are some drivers.
Call it cowardice, but I can use my flashers and horn all day to express my displeasure at folk. I just can’t be rude to anyone face to face. Despise it. I spent a long time in retail management, and you never get anything out of anyone unless you’re pleasant and decent to them, regardless of race creed or colour.
Manners cost nothing. It’s not an RDC, but one of the drops I do, the bloke is so stressed he’s about to burst on an hourly basis. Used to rant and rave, scream and shout, the minute he saw me. Now he knows he can go for a ■■■ and chill for a bit. I’ll tip myself, help him check it off, split the notes, even take a stack or 2 of empties if I can fit them on. Smiles all round.
Quite a few these days have smoking hot Eastern European chicks behind the desk in goods in,in the rdc’s
I rarely get stressed when sat there drooling!!
Some hot EE chicks at Dixons Rdc Newark.
Morrisons ambient Rdc Northampton.
They look nice in their skin tight jeans and good looks.
They never moan.Always polite.And smile at drivers.
Would an English girl do that.?
They look at you as if you have killed their cat.
And Hotties at ambient Morrisons Rdc Bridgwater.
There a few tidy EE chics in Stobart chilled at Lutterworth, and a few munters of English chics in the same place. There all mannerly and are nice to chat to.
