    Somewhere in Connecticut. Melton made me angry today. I'm always hearing that loads are given out in order unless someone needs to get home. That is a lie. There is definitely favoritism.

    I went to del at 0700 and another driver showed up after me. Happened to be a Blue Knight. I got unloaded and headed to the
    truck stop. About 30 minutes later, the other driver shows up at the truck stop. We talk for a minute or 2 and he goes in for food and I watch some tv. About 45 minutes later I realize that he's already gone! I sat for 4-5 hours then I got a pre plan. I haul ### to the shipper, in a hurry to get loaded and rolling because my 14 is nearly shot by now and it's coming up on rush hour in the north east.

    Who do I see finishing up his tarping when I pull into the shipper? None other than Mr. Blue Knight himself. The load isn't taking him home, he was empty after me, and both of our loads are going to within 50 miles of eachother.

    Tell me that it wasn't favoritism, and I'll call you a liar.

    Nothing at all against the driver, it's whoever it was in the office that made the decision that pissed me off.

    First time that I've seen it done so obviously. In fact, first time that I've been able to confirm what happened with the other driver.
