    #### that's messed up... tell Nacho I said what's up and I understand the pay issue. I currently and hopefully never will have one but I have heard drivers say keep tabs on your pay. I know a driver from the Baltimore terminal that had a discrepancy about his pay but I think they fixed it...

    So this is the part where I vent and throw a fit, last week they tell me to help out on rahway, like anybody who is down to make a buck I go there, Monday I flew in ready to go to work because I'm flying back Thursday... ohh theres nothing for you to do gave me st372 was a piece of trash and still is... Tuesday comes around only a preload. Wednesday a load and go to Philadelphia. Then that same day they gave a load to texas"because I was running forced dispatch since I'm a company driver in this situation", I was patient because they have helped me before. Dropped by the house then I get a call "you are shut down until you take a drug test" so I did in my day off (they don't pay you for those, then I drove from hinesville to Houston for a delivery, the terminal here to get my load back and start heading my way. So they put me on a load using things the truck doesn't like 2 inch hoses etc etc. I have to be home every other day or so. I sent a email to one of the big guys in Schofield terminals telling him that truck is bad no power steering (happened last night still dont know how)and a whole bunch of little stuff I want fixed to avoid dot sniffing around that was at 7 in the morning is 11 already I'm supposed to be in Orlando Florida tomorrow to be with my wife to pay my respects to a family member(which they knew). And now I just got this message via peoplenet... the lack of common sense in of some of this people is making me think about finding another home for my career and it might start sooner than I expected. 20180814_093200.jpg

    I don't know since I am a company driver. Let me check with a buddy who runs O/O out of the same terminal.

    He says it's not force dispatch but you don't want to turn down too much because then they might mess with you. He's got a gig he likes where he's home every week. He says net probably 1500 - 2k a week.
