Al Bacon - BACA8 - Professional Driver -The Home Depot |
Joe Nagle (Account Manager) recently rode with Professional Driver, Al Bacon. Al came to The Home Depot account from Van. He ran as part of our pop-up fleet for a year before he joined the team about 3 years ago. Al loves driving for us and likes the customer and the stores that he delivers to.
We had the opportunity to discuss some of the issues in the office that will help us to become a stronger team for the future. Some opportunities remain for communication to the drivers from the managers as well as planning switches throughout the day. The equipment is getting better with a number of our older trailers being traded in and picking up newer trucks.
The delay at the guard shack is continually improving however in our ride it took us over 9 minutes to get processed through when it should only take 3 ½ minutes. This gave me a great opportunity to bring this to the attention of The Home Depot transportation department.
Al loves working with the office staff and driving for us and hopes to continue his driving career with us up to retirement.
