    I am so sorry to read this. TQL by any chance? They are famous for his kind of "brokerage"

    Prime Logistics. I actually have pretty good luck with TQL when I have to use them. Its a big company and after a while you find some really decent brokers that don't play the typical TQL games and just offer the top of the margin... At least to me. Coyote, on the other hand.....

    You lucked out, not only on avoiding what sounds like a broker with no respect for the driver, but getting a load home to go on vacation. Don't worry about it, that was far beyond reasonable of you.

    They got 30 minutes. Then the phone call that says you got 10 minutes or I'm moving on.

    Don't give that dude a second thought.

    No rate confirmation? No load. I will not stop my search for freight until I have a signed confirmation sheet.
    If it's not in writing, it doesn't exist.

    The OP was Overly Patient..Too Patient.

    I Personally haven't worked with a "new" Brokerage Where's I Had too Setup With,But I'll tell you this.

    If Im Set up with you- You Got 30 minutes to have a RC in my Hand

    New Brokerage- I'll give you an hour to put me in your system(*As I do you) And Have your RC sent over....

    Anything After That Timewise- The Trucks Covered

    When someone starts screaming at me I politely tell them they are not my mother and she is the only one that can yell at be.

    Then I hang up or leave.
