    That's absolutely crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!! Call your dispatcher or the head honcho and raise hell but in a professional manner.There's no reason why drivers have to sit for days/hrs.Companies could be one step ahead and start looking for a ld while that driver is under a load.My last company did that and never did I have to sit the 2 plus yrs with them.

    If i ever sat for more then 3 hours hell would be raised, and they knew I'd quit if they didn't make it right. Dont let your company boss you around. Show them who wears the pants in the relationship.

    There's no reason to sit for that long. You're in one of the best areas for getting loads. Sounds like someone definitely dropped the ball there. You need to call upper management and let them know.

    When was the last time you contacted her? If you don't hear back within a reasonable amount of time you contact her again.

    On a side note, you should be contacting dispatch of the area you're going in to and getting your next load set up. Waiting until you deliver to get the next one lined up is never good.
