    You left out the part about Cheetos, a beanbag chair, and pocket pool breaks.

    No. If you got gravy, enjoy the gravy. Forget about getting ahead. They have a good contract.

    They have a niche and it works for them. I’d be happy to just run light most of the time

    You know...

    I’ll always have a job as long as I’m competing with my fellow millennials.

    It really is a blessing in disguise for the hardworkers my generation has. We just have to deal with all the bs social policy that comes with it...

    If Purple Meatloaf enjoyed running lightweight I’d be fine doing it... but she wants the 48k coil outta Chitown.

    :(

    Run light, easy securement, same pay? Boogity boogity. That’s actually more money for a company driver and an easier drive. Right?

    Yes. Problem is too many will then bid the TL rate down to a partial rate if they figure they can get that other partial. Then the rates go down for everyone.

    It could also be that SPD's customer is requiring exclusive use in the contract, regardless of the dimensions or weight of the load.

    Til you show up and someone sees it that shouldn’t. Then you’ll be wondering why you ain’t been to that customer for 30/60/90 suspension period.

    One of them things. Exclusive use: generally means exclusive use. And if it’s a direct customer you want to be keeping happy, you play by their rules and charge enough so it makes sense.
