    This might just be a sign to leave lol. You got your stuff out, truck is turned in, you're close-ish to home...

    By the time they figure all this out his truck will be fixed assuming something unseen isnt causing the clutch pedal to go out

    Tell me if anybody thinks this is stupid...they won't deadhead me 320 miles with an empty dry van to Marietta...but, they will deadhead me 179 miles to pick up a TP load going to SC, but told to drop (out of route) in Marietta. WTF!!!!!

    Oh, and the assistant fleet manager had me set up to drop this rental in Destin, 60 mi away, then ubering back to this truck stop... Deland's fleet manager changed it, now I am dropping at the Pensacola airport...16 miles away.

    Maybe that TP load is under contract back from the 2020s and they getting $5/mi on it still so it makes sense to go out of route:eek::rolleyes: :p

    Man I really hate to say this, because Ive hoped things would get better for you over there, but it blows my mind that you drove right past the house to continue on with this mess, at some point I would think for your own sanity you’ve got to cut ties with it all.

    Why did Creaffer.. even send you to recover another truck...before the shop could look at yours...and see how long...it would take to fix it..makes no sense at all

    Welp now I wait for Creaffer to get the proper bills from the shipper to offload.

    The pizza shipper just gave me a single short form BOL and this Americool needs a BOL with batch codes to receive the product.

    They were nice enough to put me in a door but I wont be unloaded till afternoon csrs can get in touch with the shipper and get the proper BOL.
