    Not real sure. And these where John Deere Loads coming up from Mexico. Wonder if there are more and we are just not being told. I do not care to haul CH Robinson loads. Never had one that there was not something wrong with it.

    Wrong, how?
    You can ignore my query in another thread because you answered here.

    But, how have they been wrong?

    I have had more than my share of messed up loads with CH Robinson. So called appt times that were not there, missing appt numbers that might have to wait hours to get, no touch that turns out to be driver unload and many others. I have dealt with them many years ago. There was even a large law suit against them once by female employees of theirs, being told to work over time and not getting paid for it. They were always just a PITA to deal with.

    Such is the result of too little sleep and/or too many threads.
    Things get mixed up.

    But as long as the message gets to the right place...

    lol you wouldnt want to see all my tabs, I have tons of them in 2 different browsers, different emails, forums, seedboxes, torrent sites etc etc, my wife goes nuts if she hops onto my laptop and cant figure out how I keep up with so much at the same time. I tell her its just many years being a computer nerd and I can multitask quite well.

    Sitting at home now for my days off, dont really have anything planned except to get my daughter to visit, I just hate waking up early to take her to school :p

    I generally refrain from jumping out to help another driver get their truck in a dock or parking spot. For one thing there is the liability and for another I've found that most drivers tend to be pretty set on doing it themselves. Last month I was blind siding into a diagonal spot at a truck stop. Maybe it was the Swift logo, but suddenly four drivers swarm over to "help" me back it in. Generally I will accept such help or pretend they were helpful to be polite, but to tell the truth most of the time it makes it more difficult for me to get the job done. One of those drivers jumped right up on the running board on the passenger side, calling the shots, and completely blocking my mirrors. I had to politely ask him to get down and move back where I could see him and still see my mirrors. They all seemed a bit put out that I GOAL'ed during the back, but I did it anyway and ignored their advise and got it in the spot. I thanked them anyway and they congratulated me for making such a difficult back. Methinks they thought I was a rookie.
