Ask your delivery driver anything.

Why don't you have a real job? Where did it all go wrong?

It all started with one innocent puff of marijuana.

does anything ever "go missing"?

Uh, yeah... go talk to that guy [prep cook]; he's the one who will be putting it all away.

>> No.9022543

>>9022532
Anything as in 1 or 2 items in a large multi-pack that is easily made to look unopened and i know the customer wont count all of the items in said box before signing? Maybe.

"gyoza"? No idea what that is. Assuming its meme right now on /ck.

>> No.9022544

How often do boxes go missing?
Its piss easy to grab a few boxes and run off before you come back for more.

How bad is the turnover?

For months this year it was the one poor fuck training a new person every week. They'd be late and slow, but I'd always feel bad for the trainer. I heard from the newest guy that the hours can be murder.

also gyoza you will probably know better as potstickers

Just about. Ive even found a 6" gecko in the back of the truck which i grabbed and placed gently about 10 feet from the truck.

>>9022538

That's called freezer burn.

Hmm... that explains alot actually lol. Ive been doing deliveries for 15 years and have only noticed 1 case of food missing from the top of a stack so i guess ive been lucky.

>>9022549
Turnover is pretty high. Ive heard that only 1 in 5 new drivers make it past a year. Ive worked an 18.5 hour shift before and thought i was gonna die.
>>9022551
Aaah... i see. Considering 1 case of those are pretty heavy, a whole pallet is gonna cost you.
>accidently undelivered
As in, the customer payed for them but they were left on the truck? A few times for various reasons. If the customer was cool ill go back and redeliver it when i get a chance. If the customer was neutral ill write them a credit so at least they dont pay for it. If the customer was a dick they will pay for the missing case because they signed for it and deserved to be shorted it.

no I meant "accidentally undelivered" as in, you found it later at home

>> No.9022609

Refrigreated/frozen or normal? I don't know how it is on the driver side it was kinda absurd how much easier it was to unload and deal with the frozen stuff.

>> No.9022656

>>9022605
Naw, never taken a case home. Security checks our bags when we leave the property, so id have to stash a case somewhere before coming back to the yard, and then retrieve it after i leave, and that would be alot of work and kinda risky.

>>9022609
All of the above. Yeah id rather deliver frozen cases over the other types of cases any day. Plus when i open that freezer door and that blast of cold air hits me it feels kinda good.

What are your three greatest fears when on the job?

>> No.9022728

>>9022658
good question!
-Falling off the ramp and breaking my arm or something
-opening the back door and find my load has fallen over and im gonna have to write a bunch of credits to the customers for damaged cases
-falling asleep behind the wheel and causing a major accident

Why the fuck do you always have to deliver at 330 in the morning right when I'm in a rush to get the store ready to open? Can't you come like 30 minutes later?

>> No.9023088

>>9022844
Have you tried talking to your salesman?
If not, you could ask the driver to wait until you get the store open, and then you could offer him breakfast when are ready to receive the order.
