    Wow, you have 5, I have 3. When I had my authority it was fairly easy to see who new brokers were by their MC number. I really wish we had a way to tell that of our agents.

    In my mind...and this is just me... these agents ought to be legit with their loads, and there appear to be several that are sooo not. I don't call it babysitting... I call it DOING THEIR JOB. You don't post a load and not expect anyone to call. You get a call, that means someone is willing to haul it. It's money in your pocket. The agent isn't babysitting, they are taking care of the load. Again...that is their JOB.

    Funny you say this.I hardly ever get any calls from ''agents'' asking about this so called hot load worth Millions..

    There it is in a nut shell...We are only a means to an end for them to make there ''paycheck''..Many agents,not all could care less about BCO's,The Product or there own customer...Once ''booked'' it's your problem and baby now..The agent made his/her 7%,on to the next load......:biggrin_25513:

    i get agents that call me. sometimes good. sometimes not.

    they're calling less and less though. and the rest are calling more and more.

    seperating the good from the bad you could say.

    and i have all of you to thank. for the great learning you've all provided.
