    While I sit here in mt crawford,va was told it was gonna be a while silos are full.. In my opinion I have never seen a decent size company like this play so many favorites, I don't wake up in the morning wondering who's ### I'm gonna kiss for that day. After I delivered in shippensburg I picked up the next morning in spruce creek,pa going to high point,nc. After that was told to head to montazuma,ga got to macon and hey we need a "favor" yea yea picked up in valdosata and brought it to spartaninburg,sc. So yesterday ended up a decent 800 sum mile day. First solid day in a while, reloaded this afternoon in spartansburg and here I sit in mt crawford.

    If i were you, i would talk to Matt about getting off of Darrins board and getting on a different dispatchers board, just explain to him that you aint getting the miles that you want, and wanna try someone else. Or you can call and talk to Amy, besides being our recruiter, she is also in charge of drivet retention, simply explain to her that you are not making any money on Darrins board and that you are thinking about leaving the company and she will do anything in her power to fix the problem.

    Is it really a darrin issue? Everytime I call him he yells over to the load planners asking what I should do.. So it just sounds like he's a middle man, at the mercy of the load planners.

    I'm so sorry but I almost blew milk all over my keyboard when I read this post. It's bad to be sitting in another drivers seat but man... to be in that seat and in ARCADIA at the same time is.. well almost the worst. I'm from central Fl and know that area well. Good luck to you.

    But do you "Got Milk??" Eh.. I'd guess that bit of ham is probably past it's "best if used by" date.

    Sincerely, I do want to say thanks for keeping the story going. Every time I start thinking I want to go get my CDL and try out the trucker lifestyle, I find a thread on one of these message boards that makes me think I might do better with a different hobby. (Like bull riding, maybe)
    Good luck to ya!
