Remember: Do not kill the Medline driver when he finally shows up. Even though it's after three and they're supposed to be here by noon latest according to instructions at the warehouse.

Even if it is Joe*, the Wonder-driver.

*Joe is consistently two hours or more late, and often causing me to stay past the time when I need to leave. Which is kinda bad because we're still not really allowed overtime, and having to justify for the 20th time in a row with 'the driver was late' will eventually not be good enough as an excuse. Last time, his excuse was that he was 'at lunch' and wouldn't be here for another hour.

Medline = NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

They frequently make me crazy over the phone, and I feel your pain.

The only company we have to deal with that's worse than Medline is Fisher Scientific. (But at least Fisher is incompetent from top to bottom. The medline driver just has a 'tude. And then he wonders why I give him one right back.)

And what gets me? It's just this ONE driver (they rotate our route between three). The other two? At least call if they know they're going to be late (I had to call the rep today to find out what was going on), and even then, they break their asses to get to me ASAP, and are often there earlier than they project.

This guy? He just don' wanna. And I know he's pissed at me because he's been written up at least twice over it now. But that isn't going to make it any easier on him since I'm supposed to call in now every time he does it.

((This would be because you have the wrong Joe driving.))

((Well, if this Joe showed up with my deliveries, I'd definitely have a lot less to complain over, that's for sure. ;) ))
