USA Truck is desperate for loads, bc they sucks ###

This was taken right from USA Truck's website. They must be expanding into different types of loads now.
"We have the expertise to help you move freight more cost effectively. We offer transportation solutions that help drive cost out of your truckload, intermodal, refrigerated, flatbed and less-than-truckload freight with one call" -
Atleast UPS will keep them upright and out of the rhubard unlike Fed-Ex!

Well, they also have what they call a "Brokerage Division." The folks that work in that section handle all our brokered loads. Either we receive stuff that is brokered out from other companies (the CH Robinson stuff and I can't count how many JB Hunt loads I've pulled) plus we broker stuff out to other carriers. I believe a lot of the reefer loads get sent to CR England and a lot of the LTL stuff goes to Old Dominion or ABF. I've had several loads that were partially rejected not due to damage just wrong things that the customer claimed they didn't order or cancelled. Each time I've been instructed to take it to a ABF or ODL cross dock and dump it.
On a side note to that, I've ended up unloading my own trailer each time too. One time ODL wanted me to reload tires on their truck because none of their dock crew were at work that day. I just told them that I couldn't because I didn't have enough time as I was already dispatched on another load. The warehouse manager tried to talk me into it but I told him that I was not planning on showing the unload on my log but if I took another hour loading their truck I would have to which would mean that I would ask that USA pay me for it. I then told him if USA had to pay me for it then they might try to charge ODL for it. He said "never mind" and left. -
