[QUOTE="Whither, post: 4062863, member: 76643"] As for the latest re: my contractor's incompetence -- Saturday I reported as scheduled, despite never getting a firm yes or no from mgmt by Friday evening whether I was eligible to work (due to my dog bite this past Thurs and the workman's comp drug testing process ... got tested Fri afternoon -- I knew the results would be clean but I never heard if I was officially cleared to work). I did not have a route. Before punching in I asked my lead dispatcher whether I was released or should punch in and pick up a route. This idiot gave me the run-around, and ofc [I]hadn't even been informed re: my injury, [/I]let alone my status[I].[/I] He even stupidly told me it was my responsibility to learn whether or not I was cleared for work, lol. I said, "Okay, then I guess it's also my responsibility to determine my rate of pay, so I immediately award myself a raise to $40/hr with company-paid benefits." Very few drivers like this dispatcher, he's a real joke ... yells about petty things we've heard 100 times while we laugh, never has an answer when you need it. I tried to peg him down and, get this, he told me "I [I]am not [/I]a manager!" My patience was exhausted. I punched in, yelling at him in front of 15 drivers, "How much more incompetent can this company get! You are the [I]lead dispatcher [/I]today -- otherwise known as the [I]manager on duty [/I]-- and you [I]need to be professional. [/I]It is [I]your[/I] responsibility to tell me whether I must stay or am released!" Finally, after 5-10 min of this nonsense, I think he got tired by my insults and called a higher-up. Who also didn't know whether or not I was eligible, ha. I wound up picking up a route and working. [/QUOTE]
