    Yeah i turned down a stupid load going to LA, it was just plain stupid as I know something good will happen tomorrow as you are right SHC, Texas is usually good on a Friday otherwise, no problem sitting all weekend.

    Unload today in Western WA. Gonna run down to Portland and visit family tomorrow. Run over to Eastern Wa on Sunday to load 25,000 pounds, no tarp Monday, to Denver.
    I love how people are always saying only trash and leftovers hit our loadboard.

    I ran inot a similar problem as well. I was offered quite a few loads out of the Pittsburgh area going to dead area's like Tulsa, Vegas and Phoenix. Sure they paid well, but once I figured in the bounce to a load, it just make sense to take the lighter load that paid a little less, going to an area I know I can get freight from.

    Basically. The 1 load pays a weeks worth of wages, but I don't want to bounce empty just because it paid me well enough to do so. There is freight in the area (and NOT going to CT/NH/ME/MD) I just had to wait for one to come available.
