5th morning training on a machine (stand up reach truck). Was told not to worry about speed and rates,just learn the machine and your job. These ARE NOT standard fork trucks or stand up trucks,the steering is completely counter intuitive than they are on a regular machine. I told them I had over 15 yrs verifiable experience on ACTUAL stand up trucks and forklifts. Told I had 60 days to learn machine and adjust to rate,5th day training and I was demoted and sent to order pick,I bumped a fence taking my truck to park it because I was frustrated at being demoted. They claim I did over $250 damage bumping a fence (didnt have my phone,so couldn't take a picture).Mind you,if you hit something too hard,these machines lock you out(shut down). Nothing but a scratch in the paint on the fence,no damage to truck except a little paint transfer. Covid Delta running wild and they want me to swab my mouth,NOT HAPPENING... Supervisors should listen to what somebody says and not what they want to hear; they have experience but not on this particular machine...There is a learning curve on any machine,I used to tell my guys that the expert in any field was once a beginner...So in short Joey(liar),Jose,and Clay need to get their act together and give a chance or don't. Mind you, I was still on my 6 hour training,not started 12 hr shifts yet. A man I talked to yesterday(name not stated to help him) told me DO NOT TRUST ANY SUPERVISOR HERE!! In short,be careful what you wish for because it may come true. I never demoted somebody for a mistake in my own business, and never will. This is the second machine I've been moved to inside of 36 hours,so I AM NOT an expert,but have more experience loading and unloading pallets than 3/4 of your staff,and and by next weekend you would have saw it. You act like your equipment is industry standard,it is not. Stupid to have a training period if you aren't allowed to train. I see you only respond to truck driver reviews, but I've vented and I'm done. As an update,tried calling the number associated with their response,it's a customer hotline and at the end, I finally spoke to somebody that transferred me to H.R. @ Pendleton,and low and behold,nothing but voicemail...I can't imagine why you have the turnover you have, my guys would work 16 hrs and laugh and joke the...

Really   bad experience with this company, the worst experience in the last 10 years of my driving. App time was for 8 pm but shipper gave me wrong paperwork and when checked in, the guy at gate security was really rude and talking to me, he said I was not on the schedule, but they didnt tell me that it was wrong number on bol, I waited till 10 pm for mybdispatchbto resolve the issue and then I called receiving they said wrong number, get right bol and come back, they were resolving it until morning tomorrow, at 11 am got right bol but at the gate other rude security guy said you didnt reschedule, I went back got for 2 pm appointment, came at 1:10 pm and the rude security guy told me come back at 2 pm. I was going back and forth to the gate I think maybe 6 or 7 times in 24 hours. One of the worst companies to deliver and one of the most unprofessional in my experience. Perfect place to lose...

Nice place especially the lady at the receiving office very cool, but the dayshift fat boy at the guard check is insane, I had an appointment at 11:00am tried early at 9 am he returned me, I understand 2 hrs early may not work. I came back at 10:30am, to my dismay and wonder he told me again to return at 11am sharp, before I made U turn in the facility it was 10:45 and went straight to the Receiving office and the lady assigned me a door and empty within an hour! I gave them 3 stars, if not that Crazy boy they...
