Soo, TQL advertises a load at a decent rate $3+ / mile. We bite. They say deadhead from where we are is around 80 miles. We know better, and it turns out to be 117 miles. Already knew that they play that game, so no big deal and had factored it in.
Appointment is for 11, told TQL it would be 11:30 before we'd arrive - said it was no problem.
Arrive at shipper at 11:30. They ask who we brokered through and we said TQL. They were P I Z Z E D. Said they were booked for appointments all day and were NOT expecting TQL to send anyone. They will TRY to work us in. Call to TQL has the broker basically saying 'keep track of your time there and we'll see what we can do.'
Not particularly antsy yet, since it's only 1.5 hours we've been waiting. In 30 minutes if we don't have a door, we'll be making a phone call.
