    . You missed my point, they are required to call you. My inbox never gets full or clogged. A new email just gets in line. It's just a first every morning heads up, where it helps is when a troublesome system is moving across you can avoid taking a load in its path, it's a 8 o'clock am heads up notice.

    Been hanging out here since noon awaiting orientation for flatbed tomorrow. Great facility and you can tell people are happy just by hanging out with the drivers. Lots of people in a good mood which is a rare sight in my short 2 1/2 years of trucking. I'm sure it'll be like most orientations and lots of info in a short time frame but crazy excited as I've done my research and planned pretty well for this move.
    Had big plans for today to do the Louisville slugger tour and get a nice prime steak at Mortons but got sidetracked hanging out with folks and watching about 50 pre-orientation videos and taking quizzes, lol. Look forward to a great future here though!

    No, I didn't miss your point. They are required to do what you request them to do, which is why you have that conversation. In essence, some people want the coordinators more hands on, some want them more hands off. Your interaction with your coordinator is based on what you decide it should be. The fill ins have not had that conversation, so they have to call you on everything, your coordinator does not. And again, I'm checking way more than they can possibly tell me in an email when it comes to weather. If you like it, good for you. Just because you like it and want it does not mean everyone does or that it would be beneficial to. To me, it's a redundancy that doesn't look at what I would be looking at, and thus it's an unnecessary redundancy, so I neither need or want it.
