Well, took a side job with a local company that a bud of mine works at. Left Oregon early yesterday morning to go pick up some equipment 480 miles away in Montana and bring it back. I was planning on getting home late yesterday evening but due to problems getting trip permits we didn't get back until 05:30 this morning. Its now 06:00 and I'm scheduled to return to work at 08:00. I've been awake now for 42 hours. Due to the computer system down I have no idea if I have a load on me, or what the appointments are, or if it can be taken off me so I can get some sleep. Supposedly its supposed to be back up at around 06:30, and I'll have to call back in. I wouldn't be dealing with this #### right now if I had the 8 days off I should have had.

Wow, turns out I don't have a load on me. Normally I'd be pissed considering I've been off for 6 days but given my current situation it actually works out perfect since I got to push my nat out until 17:00.

Uh, no....it isn't, at least in a blanket-statement sort of way. If a company and driver can't work together (or, more accurately, are not allowed to work together) for the benefit of both, then it's not worth being there.
Which is why by the first of the year, I will no longer be a company driver anywhere.stevep1977 and teddy_bear6506 Thank this. -

Sounds like your DBL is trying to set you up as the incompetent one to cover his/her own ###. Either that or you really don't have a clue how to set a NAT Lol.
One thing that I find annoying about the ETA system is whenever they send out a modified dispatch. Whenever they enter routing points or if you can't find an empty and the send you a new assignment after you accept the original assignment, it changes around your ETAs and that screws up your ETA percentage. I guess there are ways around that though...
Talk to your ops manager and respectfully say that you aren't happy with your current DBL and would like to be reassigned.Last edited: May 30, 2013

I know how to set a NAT the problem is people behind the scenes change it also. If I set my NAT for a Thursday at 0800 and I get a call while I'm at home saying what are you Doug you have a load why haven't you went and picked it up? That's there problem.
