    We don't get paid until they get our paperwork. If they keep this b.s. up, I may just hold all paperwork until right before the payroll cutoff.

    I said the same thing when we all got messages on our tablets today about “all drivers must come to a complete stop at stop signs”.

    Maybe you could try Barr-Nunn. Don’t know much about them but they pay pretty well according to their website

    Was hoping he would go to muckamuck. That would make a fun read on his thread.

    Another mega with ultra-micromanaging AND slip seat trucking, along with the nanny driver distraction devices and opti-idle...no thanks. That would be out of the frying pan into the fire. They'd have to pay me more than $1/mi for that, just like here. The thought of total retirement from trucking has occasionally been creeping thru my thought process as of late. With all the ever increasing mega crashes, unreliability of these modern trucks, and overbearing micromanagement virtually everywhere, I don't enjoy doing this any more. Not sure how many more times I can slam my head against another wall before I throw in the towel and stand at the end of an off ramp with a cardboard sign.

    Probably make more money that way and less likely to die by 4wheeler.

    Already not looking good on first load. Was given a preplan to pu a preload from Nestlé in Anderson, IN. Even asked dispatch if this WAS a preload since it had a set apt time and was told it was and could arrive whenever.

    Get here and had to creep around another truck that somehow got stuck in the mud when backing up in the staging area only to be told by the machine that there is no open dock and to wait in staging area till called.

    Wasn't this suppose to be preloaded? Seems now it's a live and a work in at that and reviews show wait times raging over 10+ to over 24 hours before people got a call for a door.

    Hoping things don't take long....

    Keep us updated
    Definitely hard to find a company that works for the driver instead of the other way around.

    Wish I ran a carrier. I would hire him in a second.
