I've been working the GM 4am shift for a while now. I don't usually unload the freight because they have me pushing pallets and repacks from the moment I get into work. However, since I start work at the same time as my inbound team I occasionally have interactions with them, and quite frankly, most of them seem like asses. I understand being a little grumpy about having to get into work at 4am, its not easy, but that's no excuse to take it out on the world. A few examples of things they do include:
- Just completely ignoring me and acting like I'm not there. They won't say hi, good morning, or even make eye contact. This isn't solely an issue with the inbound team, but it seems to occur most often with them.
- They're cliquey. I only see inbound TM's hang out with other inbound TM's. I very rarely see them interact with anyone else and none of them have made any attempt to introduce themselves to me or even have a conversation. This seems especially weird since I work with them just about every day.
- God forbid I accidentally get in their way when moving a pallet or a U-boat. They act like the two seconds it takes for me to push the thing out of their way is going to set them back immensely or something. They just start aggressively waving my arms for me to move the pallet/U-boat. This one especially pisses me off, just chill tf out.
- Sometimes when I am trying to move a pallet to the floor to start pushing, I'll grab a pallet jack I see in the backroom. I can't tell if it's being used or not. But occasionally I'll grab one that the inbound team is using and they get so upset about this. I understand they need a pallet jack, but would it be the end of the world if I borrowed it for five minutes so I can take my pallet to the floor and bring it right back?
