Not likely. I got this because I did work above and beyond for several months with no complaints and they know they can rely on me. They arent the kind of agency that pulls someone off a route to give it to someone else. They called ME and asked ME if I wanted it. I didnt "worm my way into it"...
The Wisconsin Coke part of it they just gave to me for a couple of months because their regular is going to be on vacation. When she comes back, she gets it back (I ran it last year for several weeks when she went on vacation then as well). But we have another thing we are working on. Just need to find a way to get to the pick-up regularly.Last edited: Feb 23, 2020

Picked up on time?
Delivered on time?
Didn't crash into anything?
Helped the shipper or receiver in some small way?
These things are expected, not extras.
You are self diluted if you think there is any kind of loyalty here. -

I have a handful of agents I like to deal with for all my trucks.
I won't get married to any of them. Because when they stub their toe, it's just the way it goes.
Not being a little diversified is setting yourself up to hate life in my opinion.
There is good freight on the board as well.
I've seen some agents have excellent freight that lasts for awhile, then they lose it. Simply because someone undercuts it.
I'd say about 60% of our stuff never hits the board.
But 95% of the time someone calls and offers me something, it's garbage.
I know my safety rank and delivery record, I can steal anyone's loads if I want to.
Any good freight all someone has to do is post it, it's gone in seconds.slow.rider and 77fib77 Thank this. -
And never complained.
So yeah, I know what "customer service" is and frankly Im offended by your comment.
And the key here is, if I am at home with no load scheduled, they call ME and ask ME if I want it before they post it.flood Thanks this.
