    Maybe he doesn't have a way to access the forums while he's on the road. And when I go O/O, I'll most definitely have her getting my loads lined up while I'm busy driving and sleeping :)

    It does not work like that you have to be departed from the 90 to be eligible for a new load

    Only if you are working for a company. He said O/O not L/O.

    It works like that whether you are company, lease or O/O. No one gets to line-up multiple loads here. They'll send you a preplan if the freight backlog is deep enough, but there's not enough information associated with it to actually pickup the load.

    I said A company. If you are a "true" O/O and running your own authority, etc, then you can pick your own loads as you wish. Working with or for Prime, well, you get what's available. And sometimes it isn't all that grand. But it does pay the bills and let you get ahead of the game. (In our situation, for a check to beat his previous employment, he just needs 1450 miles/week. That says something BAD about what we pay mechanics with 20 years experience in my neck of the woods. We generally BANK more than his gross from wrenching.)
