    Oh I know that all too well. I have had my fair share and run some this summer. I was just pointing out there are bad loads and what you can make versus being able to run is all.

    let me clarify that was after they dispatched me for a ok one , took a load from new york to dallas texas and gave me 1 from philadelphia to atlanta instead, and then tried to give me a bad load on top of that .

    I'm pretty sure good runs are simply luck, and truly bad ones are punishment

    Hate to tell you this Plat, but a lot of your problem was your DM. I know you liked him, but I think you are the only one. It wasn't exactly a voluntary retirement he took after all.

    ohh really? Well I really did like him, and maybe he wasnt looking out for my best interests but I constantly communicated with him and still the same things were happening. I am glad I made a move. They should of never of charged me idle and covered me during shippers mistakes. Rob was also a reason why i stayed longer. I enjoyed working with him. I stayed because i was always hoping those little details would improve.

    You hit the nail on the head, you did your part, he dropped the ball. On a personal level I thought he was a good guy, but as far as his abilities as a DM he always let me down. Just my views of what happened when I dealt with him is all.
