    I'm shocked they won't let you switch dispatchers. You may have to go up the chain. Go all the way up if you have to. Sounds like you need a good point of contact.

    Part of the problem is, they don't have enough dispatchers, so many of them already have way more drivers than they're supposed to. The one that is usually chosen to cover my dispatcher when she out is usually covering 2 driver boards already. I say they need less drivers and more empty trucks.

    I have already warned Deland that if they don't get their #### together, I will go back to being the driver I was when I was at Crete (when she would have multiple emails about me and my attitude in her inbox every Monday morning).

    Bypass your #### terminal and go straight to the top in Lincoln. Your terminal doesn’t give a #### you need to go straight to the top

    Mike has already said I have to work it out with the Princess, he refuses to switch me. So when they have an experienced driver bale on them again, they can put a suitable seat warming steering wheel holding short bus driving school graduate in my seat and they can be happy running 375 miles a day. They don't need hard runners here, they need truck babysitters.

    go to Kutter… That’s exactly what I did a year or so ago after I started back and I emphatically sent him a text basically stating I wasn’t gonna put up with it that if it continues on, I’m turning the truck in throwing the keys on the desk and walking away And this will be the last final warning anybody in this company gets I’m not gonna tolerate sitting around twiddle on my thumb… Ever since then I’ve been running anywhere from 10,800 miles a month to 12,400 miles a month…

    From my understanding there’s one of them that’s going thru from what i know is i believe cancer treatments and such that’s why she’s out of the office so much.. if that’s who i believe it is.
