    Sorry Trey, but I'm old enough to not let someone get to me on the computer and suggest you not let him bother you either. There's going to be a lot bigger pricks to deal with out on the road than this fellow.

    ok... an im back with more.... to touch on my last post about red tagging the trailers when you have a problem... just to let everyone know something, when you go to hook to a trailer and you discover a problem, dont be quick to put the blame on the company, the shops dont know of problems on the trailers, us, the drivers are the first to become aware of the problem first, the shops rely on us, the driver, to report such issues with the trls. on wed this week i got my load assingment, i had to leave dalton at 0030 n be in richmond ky by 0500. rush load, found a major problem with the trailer which didnt allow to leave the yard, finally deliverd the hot hot hot expidited rush load 11 hours late :biggrin_25510:... whoever dropped the trl off in the yard is facing serious trouble... each time you fill out your quallcomm info its stored and saved, and they know who pulled the trailer last. this industry is def a Cover Your own ###, so do what you need to do...

    another note...
    when getting your loads, n you read where your going, and you see your delivering to one of our terminals, and you get talking to the other drivers an they say " oh hell, its a terminal load, get it their when you do " thats b.s.... we have a huge problem with loads not getting delivered on time to our terminals cause this is the thought most have... dont think cause its a terminal load and it says to deliver by 1600 on friday you can get their sometime over the weekend, or at 2000 that night... we got a lot of the terminals that work early hours and work weekends and are waiting for that freight.... one of the best things to do is call the terminal manager and ask him/her when they need that load and take it from their.

    thats bout it for now...
