[QUOTE="Redtag, post: 5284855, member: 70933"] I used to be like that when I had a package car fleet. A lot of the reason most mechanics are miserable to the feeder guys is because we have a fleet system where scheduling and completion of work is the responsibility of the mechanic not management and the workload can be quite high at times. Now you get a feeder guy come in with a problem that will throw off whatever plan you had. Also, the delays can be big sometimes and involve the load going missed and be a giant pain in the ass with eyes on it and a lot of guy don't want to deal with that. And, Some guys just have had too many trailers with a expiring FED loaded on the 31st and then brought over to the shop as an emergency!!! On the 1st, it happens all the time and they almost always have a very limited window to miss service, most mechanics get jaded after getting a few " too many redtags" or why did YOU not get that 8 pmi done and back in service talk after they spent the night bailing operations out because THEY put an expiring FED on door, again. Anyway, none of the guys in our shop hate the drivers, we know this place can be irritating and :censored:ty for you guys too [/QUOTE]
