Loblaws in Canada. If you go there make sure your ready to sit for a few hours. These people are never in a rush to load or unload. If you get there early you will have to wait for the other trucks to get done first. I don't like pulling reefers for just such a reason. Now I pull a dry van.

Another time they had 1 skid remaining on board and they went for lunch.
I hate Loblaws they have no respect for drivers, but then who does? -
never really have had much of a problem there, although only having to drop your trailer and take bills in and bugger off might be why.

They are the only only place where I have to use this trick as a courier (I was only trying to deliver one 10 pound package...) I waited at the receiving door for 10 minutes ringing the bell for like 5 times, not during their break hours, call my management, told me to go to the front, at the front all kinds of excuses from everybody to not sign for the thing, go to the manager, told me to go to the back at receiving. Then I told him "You've maxed out my time that I am allowed to a delivery stop, you are the manager, if you don't sign it, I can bring it back and my management can do nothing about it!" Then that fat pork chop old lady finally signs...
It's up to a point another driver that I know of did this to another Loblaw store, there's a shipment that prints on the box saying "signature not required, can be driver released", he pull out his phone and take a clear picture of the label to cover his ### and just drop the whole shipment right at their stairs to the receiving doors...
It depends on which loblaw store, some of them are really bad and they've been all blacklisted by all couriers, some others are doing ok although not the most friendly...
