rejected_stamp“We all learn lessons in life. Some stick, some don’t. I have always learned more from rejection and failure than from acceptance and success”- Henry Rollins. Great things happen to those who don’t stop believing, trying, learning, and being grateful. Accept it or not we all have faced rejections in our lives, be it personal or professional. Reasons and circumstances may vary but what makes you a great human being is how you react when you face a rejection.

First and foremost accept the fact that what you tired did not work and you have a temporary setback.  If rejected the next thing you should analyze is the reason for rejection, once you identified the reason for rejection try correcting it at the earliest possible.

MistakeWhen you have Vehicle identification numbers (VIN) of up to 17 characters with mixed numbers and letters, mistakes happen. For example, you type 5 instead of S.

Our complaints are like arrows shot up into the air at no target: and with no purpose they only fall back upon our own heads and destroy ourselves. It’s true that we live in a busy & schedule filled world, but with evolution we have learned to prioritize our tasks and now we know what to do first & the consequences of not doing things on time.

Many non constant factors affect their lifestyle HOS, weather, loading and unloading delays, appointments, breakdowns, traffic, etc. Also depends on what they haul, Flat beds don’t usually get unloaded at night. Most shipping hubs are 24/7 but not all receivers. Midst of all these things, time with their beloved ones happens once in a while. Continue reading
