Evening, Lodge.
So, at 5:15 tonight, about 15 minutes before my day was done, a full 53' semi came by to drop off paper products. I told the driver he was way too late, we're not receiving, that ends at 2:30pm. He said his boss said we receive until 10pm (Ed note: there isn't even anyone AT my building between 5:30ish and 10pm). He tried to insist that we take the merch. NOPE. Not having it, told him to call whatever contact he had on his bill of lading, and take it up with them. Told him that chances were that he'd have to wait until 6am tomorrow to unload.
I'm guessing he was not happy. Don't care. This company has been a supplier for at LEAST 18 years, they should know better, or the drivers are getting dumber and trying to pull fast ones. FTR, to unload a trailer like that, it takes about an hour.
I will be curious to see what happened, when I get to work tomorrow.
