Ayyyyeeeee you got this bro! You just laid out why you got this. Your family needs this!! Your body will get acclimated l. The first couple months are the toughest but if you can push through it, the financial reward on the other side is worth it. You have more job stability in good service than many other trucking lanes

My top reasons why I prefer live deliveries. 1. Dispatch later. 2. Small talks. 3. No stocking shelves to fit product in cooler/freezer. 4. About an hour or two til sunrise. 5. Free drinks/food. Good topic mane!

I do chain delivery so all our stops are key drops , that being said . It sucks working in pitch black but not having to deal with workers or cars in the lots make the job easier. + the pay is better for us overnighters ! GFS Wisconsin driver here 💸

I agree, that pitch black work is terrible but it’s a fair trade off when you don’t have to deal with people. There is a pay difference for working overnight or on a chain account with GFS out there?

You a good dude. We just had a meeting about delivery times. Our drivers have been all over the place with times, its our highest cost right now because customers charge us for late or too early deliveries. Sometimes its scheduling though too, some of my delivery times are crazy and unrealistic. I like live deliveries if the customer is cool and doesnt mind working and getting it put up. If they are just standing there and nothing is prepped for my arrival I prefer a key drop.

You make a good point. We get “dinged” if we are outside of the time window rather it’s before it starts or after it ends. I have moments where I prefer one over the other, just depends on the stop and customer.

My company, we deliver produce to schools on saturdays and I personally love it. My company doesn't care when you leave as long it gets done. We dont use scanners we have paper invoices. I guess they both have there pros and cons.

I’m sure it’s not difficult at all but man it would suck having to use paper invoices instead of scanners. It just seems so time consuming. Which company do you work for that delivers to schools on a Saturday?

@@TayTheLocalTrucker I work for Charlies Produce. We are on the west coast. Paper invoices does have its problems. Especially if you dont know the product, or mis read it. But they its faster and we delvier way less cases. but I dont know. Never used a scanner so I cant compare the 2.
