Am I Being Unreasonable?

This is my question, if the broker offered the cancellation in writing, then taking it would have been a trigger to send the invoice for the tonu.

if not, then his threats I would have told him where he can stick that.

 

Or broker got a cheaper truck and still has a Wednesday load to cover

 

After ANY verbal communication which has financial, contractual, regulatory or any other legal implications, I ALWAYS send a follow up email. I basically just repeat what was discussed in point form. This accomplishes a few things; it clarifies what was discussed and if the other party doesn't correct or dispute any of it then it is their tacit approval, it also provides a written date and time stamped record of any communications. I do it for both internal and external communications. Also, just making notes of what was said and when can go a lot farther legally (if need be) than just stating what was said.

 

I had this almost happen to me several weeks ago. Girl sent me a rate confirmation sheet with no pick-up number on it. I told her she had one hour to get it to me or else I was going to continue looking for something else. Which is exactly what I did, I found something else.

 

I meant when he was going to "report" you to whatever board. Didn't know if you can dispute it.

Original sheet was assigned for Monday. Truck not used Monday. QED TONU.

Seems straight forward to me.

 

The better boards give you an area to respond to his review of you, and you can also leave a review for him which he can respond to. Slander is a two way street, even though your version isn't slander. I'm guessing it's a baseless threat that he won't follow through with, and he'll do everything possible not to pay you a dime.
