Okay, so driver picks up a load for a major chemical company. Internationally know, this company DOES NOT GIVE THE DRIVER A COPY OF THE INVOICE. They apparently think that this will prevent the competition from getting their prices... Really? They really think that this is PROTECTING their information? The only thing it is doing is KEEPING MY DRIVER FROM CROSSING THE BORDER. The paperwork was supposedly sent electronically on FRIDAY. Of course the shipper sends it without taking my driver's PARS number and border information. (That's the way they always do it...) Anyone catching on to the fact that Livingston is the broker...
So, Being the responsible carrier that we are, I have sent FYI e-mails to the load broker through out the day. Eventually this broker decides that I am probably NOT FOLLOWING PROPER PROCEDURE FOR PRESENTING PAPERWORK TO LIVINGSTON... and proceeds to give me a a course on the proper procedure. I stopped him in his tracks when part of this procedure he is explaining to me tells me to INCLUDE THE BOL AND THE INVOICE which I have been asking for since Friday and which they have told me they DO NOT GIVE TO THE DRIVER OR THE TRANSPORTATION COMPANY... anyone catching on to the fact that if my driver sleeps near Detroit, MI he will not be at his 14h00 rdvs tomorrow in St-Jerome, QC.
once again, my question: DOES ANYONE REALLY THINK THAT THE COMPETITION DOES NOT KNOW HOW MUCH THEY SELL THEIR PRODUCT???
