PRIME drivers...What's your 20?

well on my way to turn my truck in, been very profitable my entire time at prime untill my dispatcher went back to the CORPS and i got transferred to a pittston dispatcher, i have sat more than run eversince getting moved to his board and been in the hole the entire time and i cant get any help/results from anyone except "well mabe you shoiuld train" to which i reply "if i sat for 68hrs this week with time to run what the hell makes u think im going to do that with 2 paychecks to pay.........all in all just turned out ######.....i hate it too i generally like it here liked it much better being dispatched outta sprimo

 

Well that totally sucks! Unfortunately a change in FM can really screw up a good thing at Prime.

 

yes absolutely, but i dont totally blame the new fm just partially, the load planners here the past 2 months have been total morons........ be sitting at 6am with a full set of hours and get a load gross rev. of about 550 that picks up say tomorrow evening and drops 2 days after that running down i81 grossing 79900 and goes 800 miles..... but thats not really my biggest gripe its only having 2 mabe 3 of those trips to turn in a week has been killing me, and so i stuck it out thinking mabe he'll be like my prev FM and make it up with me next week........well after 8 weeks or running, not seeing my kids, not paying my bills, eating my bank account im so farr in the hole that in order for me to break even id have to turn a 8k week........getting switched to pittston and this new FM was an absolute financial disaster......

Been off the forum for a month or so while my son was out with me... Now sitting in Las Vegas getting ready to continue on to SLC with all this candy from Victorville, CA. Gotta love that tight drop yard in Fontana - at the Knight terminal! Then hunting for an empty is fun... found one in the middle of a pasture/feed lot - that is the Ontario drop yard!
