    Foreign dispatch in India . Barely understand English . All customers with accounts 2-6 hour wait to load , rest is brokered and call you non stop . No one understands dot regs and says it's up to interpretation. Nope . It's black and white . Forced dispatch with aggressiveness. Will have you out of hours daily . Will manipulate you for home time . Trucks can't be taken home. Can't get def except at terminal . Can only fuel at pilot flying j . Pay is QuickBooks which is a joke . If your in an accident with no ticket and are not at fault you will be suspended and never contacted, basically fired . The place is owned by a penny pincher with too many irons In the fire . This is not a good place to work . A lot of shady , grey area crap here . Had a driver have his logs edited after they we're certified without his permission. They won't tell you no to anything that is basically wrong but will leave you to dry to save they're precious score. I highly advise anyone to avoid this place . If you want to run right do not work at this place .

    Why in the world would an experienced driver step into a mess such as this??? I would rather "flip burgers" or ride on the back of a garbage truck.

    Some do. Some don't. I don't deal with brokers or any overseas shippers but I've used product support call centers for all the Chinese made stuff that quits working while under warranty.
    Overall I'll give them a C-minus for English skills and a B+ for effort.

    For actually solving my problem I gave them an 'incomplete'. :rolleyes:

    I alternate between feeling sorry for them and wanting to reach out and strangle somebody after spending so much time on the phone (which I hate) and accomplishing so little.
    They have reference books and scripts to work off of. Their actual knowledge is usually very limited and if you don't realize that when you start talking to them it can drive you batty.
    I will say this, they are always polite. I doubt if I could be as cool as they are when some grouchy old fart (no names) starts yelling at them.
