    I totally agree with the guy in video.
    I absolutely refuse to service specific shippers and recievers. I give then one shot, if they blow it. I am done with them.
    there is too many good loads out here to put up with crummy ones.

    Sounds like a whiner on everything he's saying. I just ignore people like that.

    I agree on not taking certain loads but he took the load anyways? Should've just delivered it or stood his ground. Not this take it part way crap.

    He's whiny ... FL boy, doesn't like cold weather. Everything he complains about MI - and the NE - applies just as equally to CA ... bad roads, no parking ... etc. But he has no problem with CA ... well because the weather is nice.

    I won't go to Detroit unless I can get in n out. Not safe area. As a lease driver he gets paid same amount no matter where he GoEs. So he should of just taken it

    I never loved Detroit, but I caught some great loads leaving there. Detroit isn't forever. Get in and route yourself out.

    Also, quit your crying and wear a sweater.

    Nowhere to park? I see truck stops and rest stops, and other spots with tons of open spaces all the time with only a few trucks parked. This guy is just a complainer, I agree the roads are ######, but it's really more of an issue if you're a motorcyclist more than anything else.

    Detroit ain't that bad, no different than most other big cities.

    I just got a pplan to Michigan, over 2400 miles. In one load......
    id rather take it and deal with crappy shippers/receivers once a week instead of three loads and dealing with their crap 3times a week.

    Detroit has places to stop. If you absolutely hate staying in the the city, Ann Arbor is 49 miles down 96. Why waste the fuel though?
