I hear you. I was nice and respectful at first. But when they were being unreasonable and demanding, that's when I had to use the "kind words and...
If they are in a jam and need someone to move stuff pronto, I'm sure they use their DNU list. But I get what you're saying. To be honest, I'm...
The broker could have EASILY just called the shipper and told them not to release the trailer. Why DIDN'T they? THAT is the question. Anyone here...
I understand where you're coming from. But I have had some great loads with them. Not all their brokers are scum. After this incident, they...
I had delivered in Hermiston the day before. Why ELSE would I go to Nowhere OR, Genius? I DON'T deadhead for the hell of it. Portland is 190 miles...
Sounds good. I'm putting you on retainer. And don't forget, I gave him 24 hours to make things right. He didn't bother. But they never gave me a...
How did I make a bad decision? Did I know they were going to pull a switcharoo? Can YOU foresee the future? Hindsight is 20/20. If they hadn't...
Of course it was a power-only loadout! I may be dumb, but I ain't stupid! :confused:
Sarcasm? I actually have a really nice reefer that I paid cash for sitting at the yard. I'm just debating whether to sell it or put it to work....
Thank you for your advice. It is gold. That is one of the great things about this forum. I've learned so much from the guys here, so I try to...
I understand. You feel that I should be non-confrontational, and I think it is a valid point. You feel I shouldn't air out dirty laundry in...
Thanks for your post. To answer your question, No, there was no BOL. There usually isn't one for simple trailer moves. Instead, I have a trailer...
No. It was a phone call. But they record all their phone calls. I don't really think that is relevant anyway. Just icing on the cake.
Ridge, no one is insulting anyone. Chill out. I am referring to the guys that don't "get" what a load-out is. He seemed to think that I ran a...
Yeah, Star Trek was good. But as for what you would have done...potato-tomahto. No way I can let anyone get the jump on me, especially if they're...
Yeah, I'm not worried. The law is on my side. Posting on this forum was just step 1.
You don't get it either. So tell me Obi-Wan, what would YOU have done? Do you know the difference between a load-out, a tow-away, and a load?...
Opus, try to follow along...I got $700 for a LOAD-OUT, not a LOAD. A load-out is a trailer that they give you for free to use for a specific...
Some of you guys don't get it. The purpose to getting the trailer was to grab a load with it. I was able to get a load from La Grande down to...
It was a nice trailer which they were giving to me for FREE to use for 7 days. Yes, it would be nice to get paid for it, but would you rather rent...
