    This right here is why I quit otr. When I was otr I made you look like a little teddy bear all ready for a hug. I was a miserable sob and then some. Dispatch avoided me at all costs. That's why I look at your thread. I was you at one time only worse. Thank you for confirming my decision to do line haul. Don't take anything I post personal. It is how I felt when I was you.

    @kylefitzy, did you get any type of notice that our trip numbers are now Wylie's trip numbers? The load I delivered this afternoon was originally set up as a multi-pickup so it was under an M#, but my next load that picks up tomorrow starts with 1000...I never heard anything about the trip numbers changing, good thing I hadn't sent in my paperwork yet.

    Even the desk jockeys that claim to be former drivers pull the same bs. One they put the neck tie on its cuts off circulation to the brain.

    That's why nobody in our office wears a tie. Most of them probably don't even own one.

    First I’m hearing of it, but the load I’m on was booked before the “partnership”. You must be on a load that was booked after the first of the year.

    I really have to stop volunteering for these loads. Good customers, easy to secure fright, absolute #### show to tarp. It didn’t help that my tarps were a few feet short of properly covering the load. I should have thrown my small tarp in the middle. Made it about 30 miles and had to redo the overlap because I didn’t secure the rear tarp forward good enough.

    I think it turned out alright for what it is, alt least it’s a 5-6 day trip and not just going across town.

    I recently tried putting mine on after not wearing it since my grandmas funeral in 2010 or 2011. It’s in the Goodwill pile now.

    The boom lift load was sent to me before New Years, but had both the M# and a Wylie order(trip) number, but I thought the Wylie number was the customer's number until they sent me this load which had an order number that was just slightly higher.... Surprise!!!! We're Wylie!!!! It appears they're doing the 'frog soup' style merger like they did with Moore.
