30 seconds of panic....

[iruhnman630]

Pulled up to my stop, shut off car, released seatbelt, reached for the diad slot.........

......empty.


Reached down to my diad pouch on my waist......



.......empty!


I found it on my 2000 shelf after 30 seconds of heart-stopping frantic searching amongst the horror show that was my load at 11 a.m.

Heck, I don't even remember setting it there.

Hooray peak.

I had a sup shuttle packages out to me last Tuesday at 5:30...completely bricked out again. Went to take off and get back at it only to see the diad slot was empty. Took about 10 minutes to unload the truck until I found it on a shelf and reload the packages. I feel your pain!!!

mine at a pick up a few weeks ago. Thank god it wasn't the bumper again.

That stomach dropping "Uhhh Ohh" moment when you realize you ed up.

You captured that moment pretty well in your description. My panic moment happens usually once a week. Dead battery for my radio.

Sometimes you are just in a hurry and it ends up costing you time.

Back when we were on paper, that always happened.

How about a find your DIAD app on my phone so I can make it beep when it's lost in the back of my truck.

It would be cheaper to install DIAD leashes.

I got to a pickup after lunch , popped the door to get the handcart that wasn't there. It was at my last businesse stop before lunch for over an hour. Lol.

I would have filed on the sup shuttling packages. Always makes my day easier.

Recently I have left mine only to remember where it was 4 hours later. Went to go back and get it only to forget. Had a different cart the next day that was totally trash and complained all day about how "someone stole my cart out of my truck" only to find it where I left it the day before. Lol. Oops.

Life goes on.... I've had to call center before to send me a msg to be able to hear the beep to try to locate the damn thing in the back of the truck...

True.... They treat you guys like dogs anyway, might as well have leashes too...

I go about my day knowing the allowances are bogus so why even worry about it but if I start To speed up because I get behind and forget something then I'm really screwed having to go back for whatever reason

Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.
