Well my week went to shat pretty quick today thanks to an agent who either outright lied to me, or was pretty dang deceitful.
I picked up a load in SC Tuesday that was coming up here to Indiana that was supposed to be a drop and hook. Whenever I book a
D/H load to a new receiver I haven’t been to before I always ask the agent what the empty situation looks like at the receiver. She told me we always have plenty of empties. I show up this morning, and low and behold no empties. So I have to wait six hours for a trailer to get unloaded, which in turn causes me to cancel two other loads I had booked, costing me $3100 in revenue to the truck. Needless to say, I was furious.
I won’t pull that load again, and the lady in the receiving office said they run into this issue with LS constantly, and have asked the agent on numerous occasions to get a few more empties in there. So that tells me she knew the empty situation.cdavis188, JoeyJunk, MidWest_MacDaddy and 6 others Thank this. -

Please take a few minutes today to remember and reflect on 9/11, and how you felt that day 21 years ago.
I can remember sitting at a beer distributor in Tennessee, when news broke of the first plane hitting the 1st tower. For weeks afterwards I didn’t smile, laugh, or even listen to music, I just listened to the news as a drove across the country in the following days just trying to grasp any nuggets of information.
I think too many people today have forgotten, me personally, I will never forget. -
JoeyJunk, Speedy356, runningman0661 and 2 others Thank this.
