I rather take great money into a dead zone, deliver the next morning, eat breakfast if there ain’t #### to reload that fits what I like to do I’m pointing it towards the house and play the waiting game all over again. Sitting truly frustrates me I like to be rolling and trucking having fun and making money. With the way it’s been tho I’ve learned it’s better to wait for that big dollar load then try and struggle and string loads together. I may go broke 1 day doing this, my days of bouncing from ok load To ok load are over. If I go somewhere for really good money and there’s a ok load going somewhere I’d like to go, I will take it though.

The whole point for some of us to have own authority is just that - to dispatch yourself.

Do you think you can make more yourself than using a really good dispatcher. -
I dispatched myself leased to a company, I saw rate cons and negotiated directly with customers and brokers, its how I learned and I was most likely the highest earning owner operator they ever had. I partialed into MN from Long Island/NJ area once for over $8000 they couldn’t believe what I put together lol. That was before kids and when I didn’t mind going to MN lol.
