    I'm not. I'm in texas, playing here for a few days, then headed to Colorado, then Pennsylvania, lol. Just kidding, maybe, not sure what I'm doing after I get to the black hole that is Denver, but I'm trying to get to the DC by the 19th

    I'm out here in Texas myself. i had to put a ujoint in today. Got one at napa for 110. Did it right in the parking lot. I hate having to do a repair out on the road but sure beats spending half a day at some shop for the courtesy of being billed 3 hours at 120 per.

    What was showing on matched loads on unit list. ?Sometimes over the years on the old board loads would be on matched list that weren't showing under available loads. A while back loads that weren't running the board were removed from the available load list. Before that loads not running the board would be there which was a bit aggravating. It used to be coordinators would see load a bit before it hit the load board. It also may be the app can only show a certain AMOUNT OF LOADS

    LOL. She was out here on the truck with me for six months or so. Kind of hard to keep this thing a secret that long. But it's no big deal, she knew that an agent had been begging me to come cover some loads from near here next week and that once I agreed I wouldn't back out. I'm only in PA for a couple of loads as a setup for Monday. I was originally going to be working the (possible market spoiler) TN area this week but that got messed up on Monday when I lost that load to Louisville and had to replan everything.

    Can you commit to more than one load? Or would that look bad? Or would the others just drop off once you are dispatched on one of your accepted loads?

    Houston especially so,. So which days would you prefer to deliver in Houston and why? But there are many who don't consider small things like that or other things to make life smoother.
