Please read

it wasn't like this before and now they do this: they call the drivers 6-7 times a day, they ask: did you load, where, when???? they call early in the morning, , I tried to ask them why they do that?? they absolutely do not listen to what I have to say, I asked them not to call, no they absolutely do not listen to what I tell them... people, imagine a tracking app that calls the drivers by phone to open the app and confirm the location??? what is the point here??? this is madness without limits ...
