    :biggrin_25514:

    They should etch those words on the inside ceiling of every truck with a sleeper, so they're viewed every time one lays down to go to sleep.:biggrin_25525: Lots of folks create their own problems by not doing just that. Spend hours at a pop at every truckstop they pass, deliver late constantly, then ###### that they "aren't getting any miles" when their dispatcher buries them because he or she can't rely on them.

    i had a good attitude, 100% on time, and didnt cause any problems and for the most part i didnt mind them too much, the night dispatch/weekend dispatch were difficult, and miles were good weekends off and still got 2000 a week

    I hear of situations like that now and then. If that happened with, I would have said something, and if nothing changed, I would have requested a new F/L. I do know they had just recently made changes in there last couple of weeks, I have a new F/L and he seems to be doing pretty good.
