If your being cool when you show up, it&#8217;s not personal.   I&#8217;ve unloaded for Toys R Us, Kmart, Amazon(back in &#8217;08, todays amazon is way different), Walmart, and other assorted places. I never disliked the drivers unless they were douche bags, but most were also pretty cool 90% of the time. Especially the regulars.  Mind you I haven&#8217;t worked a truck crew since Amazon, back in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>I know when I unloaded trucks, the thing that pissed me off would be the managers.  &#8220;You got 2 hours to unload this 52 foot filled with a crap ton of toys. Oh we also need you to sort it out on pallets depending on department, and also you still need to be available if we need you on the register or floor. But remember! 2 hours!&#8221;  Then getting yelled at for not getting your other stuff done.  Still isn&#8217;t an excuse to take it out on the truck driver though.<\/p>\n<p>Kmart would do this.  Toys R Us would ##### and moan a little but understood. They also usually had a dedicated truck crew. Truck came in, there would be at lest 4 of us on it.  Kmart? LOL You&#8217;d be lucky if you had any help.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m so glad I got away from retail. lol. <\/p>\n<p>Best you can do is just keep doing you.
