Not sure what you meant by "you will get a lot of that" but what I meant was he has not hauled that type of freight before.
You remember the name of the lady dispatcher they gave you that you switched from a bit back? -
If tracie or Rachel is the dispatcher , then you are on warehouse side. If you are on the southeast otr or region Carla may be dispatching you.
I meant that we haul a lot of stadium seating, theater seating and office furniture . Especially to the southeast. -
Interesting that's not what he was told. It is Tracie but he will be going west to CA and Northwest. We are doing one load south to get home. Now the guys in training with him are going regional , one local one further south. They are company only drivers not l/p.

They mix up co and lp drivers .
Warehouse has nice long runs, and they are nice, and relaxed.
Only thing is you have to live unload and live reload back haul . Not too many drop/hook. He should do well though.Cybercat Thanks this. -
Who knew today would be so confusing to the otr dispatcher.
As a rule, dispatchers are clueless. They only say what they know, which isn't much. Load planners are your pal, they get you freight.
Load planners tend to treat dispatchers, especially new ones, like mushrooms. (Feed them crap and keep them in the dark)
All I needed was confirmation that I was good for a weekend load. I can leave out Saturday if need be, but Sunday preferred.
Somehow mushrooms spread spores, making for a colony of cluelessness .
I'll get to the bottom of it and get home. -
Well our day is still waiting on download but now we are at Williams doing it. We will have to go back to main office for gasket seal on fuel tank. They are looking into shifting issue too. Can't get to high gear nor over 55. Ah the life of having your own truck. At least this is all on them. Bad for me bed at hotel messed up my back bad. Good news we have a brand new mattress for bottom bunk. I get to sleep well I hope tonight. Dreading that the might put us back in motel.
Wickedfire77 Thanks this. -
Cybercat did your husband do l/p or is he a company driver?
-
I often wonder why anyone ever goes lease i guess if a driver can't get the finance to buy there own truck its the way to go, however all the drivers who are on a lease program seem to have become slaves of the company there leased to and are barely making ends meet.

I guess you have never met me.scottlav46 Thanks this.
