Pretrip

[Anonymous 11]

How long would it take to pretrip a wooden cross?


Resident know-it-all.

I don't know. Hats not my cross to bear.

Resident know-it-all.

Required height correct?
Wood of good quality?
Nails securely set?
Firmly entrenched in ground?

The list goes on....

This is not the least bit funny.

Would it help if The Chosen One was dyslexic?

I pre-trip every time. Post trip all day long but not at the building.

Tired Driver,

Thank you. Good work.

I'm one of the 6% who pre trips and post trips every single day. It's called doing the job.

Mr. Bojangles,

Thank you. Good work.

22 years in package I NEVER did a pretrip....now in Feeders I routinely tell dispatch I cannot take a tractor because something is wrong with it.

I was never afraid of nor respected the equipment in package. When I first went into Feeders I made the conscious decision to completely leave everything about the package way of life/pace behind.

If someone on an online forum found fault in nearly everything his co-workers did, would it help this individual if we kept responding to his posts?

Only if you were on the route the whole week. If you were just on it for a day, then don't worry about it.

Seriously? So the driver tomorrow has to deal with that BS. It should most certainly be written up.

Once again, only paraphrasing you.

I write up whatever truck I drive at night for MANY issues. Horn's don't work, mirrors fold in on the highway. However, when the bid driver doesn't write up something that he/she OBVIOUSLY knows is busted, then I will return the favor if it isn't a major problem.

I NEVER post trip. If there is anything to write up in the DVIR, I will notice it during the day and write it on an infonotice to transfer to the DVIR at the conclusion of my day/night

Really not much to do in a package car. You don't even open engine compartment. Kick tires, look for scratches. Make sure you have safety stuff, wipers and defrost work, good to go.

Bit more in feeders to check. I always do pretrip, post trip the way I was trained.

Like they should.

"I had to write 27xxxx up for the parking brake not holding the tractor."

"You can't take it like that?"

"No, I need another tractor."

Long drawn out sigh....and I'm handed a new set of keys.

"Thanks! See you in the morning!"
