Wtf, is the disconnect between sales and dispatch?

In the short time Ive been here, Ive had 3 instances where a load was cancled or had already been shipped, meanwhile Im still assigned the load. No one calls sends messages or anything about the load being cancled.

Ive shown up to 2 locations to pick up a load only to find it was canceled or shipped on another truck before I got there with no update to the driver. Yesterday, I called to see if I could pick up a load early only to find out it was also cancled..

It also happened once while I was in training. Ive also delt with appointment times being wrong from what my dispatched load shows vs what the customer said. (This has happened twice)

These issues have happened across 3 dispatchers from my training, to company and now lease. This makes me believe the problem resides in sales, so wtf gives?

I can't be the only one dealing with these problems right?

 

Even if another truck had been assigned to the load, which happened only in the case of the time I was still in training there is zero excuse for them to not update the 1st truck..

 

They had me drive from CT to OH with out a load to get me in a better freight lane. (Said there was too many trucks in tne NE). It was 650 miles plus tolls with no income but being told Id get a good load to make up for it..

When I get there they try to give me a load that paid $650 and it didnt pick up for another day... I was like wtf.. there is no way Im taking just that after driving 650 miles.. They end up giving me a 2nd load that paid well as a preplan. All in all with both loads, it made the move worth while.

Now, keep in mind this after having my last load delivered on Thurs night, where I sat there 12hrs untill Friday morning.. Meaning I didnt have a load on my truck since Friday morning of last week..

After diving to OH and sitting almost 24hrs I got the 1st load and end up with a 34hr reset then called to see if I could pick up that load early only to find out it was cancled. That load was supposed to take me from OH to IL where Id pick up the 2nd load..

I ended up sitting at the truck stop for 48hrs not including my sit time before they had me move to OH nor the 650 mile drive. So it was roughly 3 days with no load on my truck..
So now I had to drive to Chicago, IL with no load making it over 900 miles Ive dead headed. I get to this shipper with a order that has two PO's and the shipper tells me the 2nd PO# doesn't exisit..

Now Im sitting here with 1 PO loaded and sales/dispatch wont let me leave... Ive been here almost 3hrs now and Im up aginst my 14 now, meaning I wont get the distance I wanted to get today..

Im starting to get really pissed at this crap and Im a hard person to make angry.
