I'm not happy. I paid the guy extra because he wanted to wait to get a third horse to make the trip to Fl. So I made a deal with him through emails that I'd pay him more and he'd just bring my two right away.
He was supposed to pick up my horses at 6:00 a.m. I'd made arrangements for other people to be at the farm early to help load the horses. The guy didn't show up til 8:00 because he'd gone to pick up another horse!!! What?!!!!
So he didn't come down I-95, he went down 81 to go to Atlanta so he could drop that other horse off.
When he called me at 2:00 p.m. he said he'd just gotten into NC. What?! How could he have driven that many hours and just gotten into NC?!!!
He said he averages 55 miles an hour. That just has to be wrong. All the speed limits are 65 or 70 MPH.
It's just taking longer and my horses now have to be on that dang trailer a lot longer than I'd planned... and PAID for!
He said he'll be dropping my horses off around 2:00 a.m. Yeah right, if he's driving that slow the sun will already be up. Grrr!!
I'm clearly never using his services again and will not be giving him any recommendations.
On a better note, he said it's the first time in many years that he's had a self loader. :)
I didn't even tell him I do Parelli, but I will when he unloads them. People need to know.
I worked hard all day getting everything ready in 75 degree, sunny weather, I'm even sun-burned..
My husband called me today and said it was snowing.
Gotta love it. hehe
Guess I better get outta here and go get some sleep and set my alarm for 1:30 a.m.
Gosh Miss Cindy, I'm so sorry to hear that you had issues with your shipper...Tomorrow will be a great day.. your horses will be there ad you will be able to begin your FL adventure!
