Yeah, I've showed them these before, but it's not just one guy in dispatch. We have three dispatchers, and all three of them do it. It's one of these mom and pops joints, even the owner agrees with the dispatchers. They say as long as you don't pass a scale, what does it matter.

Hey everyone, it's been a while, hope all is well with you guys. Something finally worth talking about, Evans shutting down shop without notice. A tesoro T.O. said it was their lack of drivers, Evans' website says "banking issues" lol. Either way, we have been covering some of their San diego and I.E. loads, pulling them out of vinvale/wilmington because nobody is carded at colton or san diego. Hopefully that slack can get picked up because these 300 mile round trip loads are boring as hell.

@moloko regarding your split load issue, I always plan my route and load my truck in such a way that the trailer is empty first. I have never driven an empty truck and a fully/partially loaded trailer, and don't plan on it.
Rodeorowdy and moloko Thank this. -
I just pump my trailer into my truck should the need arise.
Rodeorowdy and plant Thank this. -

In other news... Tesoro bought western refining and they are changing their name to andeavor. Also tesoro has been on a hiring spree for their private fleet. They have posters and signs at all their terminals and I'm seeing a lot of trainees with tesoro drivers. Probably in an effort to get overtime under control. I wish my company would do that I would love to work 4/10 that's a 50% increase in weekend for a 20% decrease in pay, good trade off!
Oh yea, are you still pulling cryo, how is that going?scythe08 Thanks this. -
