    Like to know if anyone has been in touch with double yellow. Apparently went in to have his gall bladder out. They'll probably require a full 3 month recovery since healing takes place @ 1%/day. Wouldn't want to get back to rumbling and bouncing, whole-body vibration prematurely.

    Simple.

    If I'm in chicago with ms aniqua and the rats...
    Pay me the same rate as Conway freight....
    Cartage pay of $20 ....
    4 hrs up Stevenson and Dan Ryan + free shipper wait time... that's 80$ for a freight boy.

    Thennn.... I get dispatched local dh.
    (35 miles across where I came from to say Cicero...)
    For free...
    Then sit 2 hours....for free
    Freight boy would be @ $120
    ....I get paid $20

    And this is the same company....

    You all know this happens.
    Me 3 times last week... no Chicago but Dallas okc and kc.

    This is what I love LA !!!
    Multiple boroughs ...long beach is considered non local to Compton for instance....

    Chicago you have to hit the heights before you get paid....


    #1 on my list ...not even close.
    It ain't right.

    Not to mention how it effects your oor and mpg.

    Only once have I succeeded in getting paid for this in shreveport.

    #2 you let me park on Conway freight lots
    ....not outside on the street or in the employee parking lot. We are traded as the same stock so don't act like we aren't on the same team and looking to crash into or sue you.

    Synergy my butt... synergy here sucks!


    I would also enjoy not being lied to by dispatch on windows for deliveries.

    Appt only
    ^ include these in the stop summary so we don't screw ourselfs on elog tickers.
    This place wastes way too much fuel sitting in traffic that is unnecessary.

    Delv 6 hours ago.
    Being Sunday I figured wouldn't get a load till Monday.
    I was willing to go to motel, but wasn't spending the $ till I knew for sure what I was doing.
    Still no word, no reply to message.
    So truck now idles and I note it in my journal. Waiting for the mpg phone call.
    What are you doing to save fuel...
    Like communication, it should be a 2 way street.
    But like truckload and freight. 2 entirely different deals.

    Doing a cartage relay from a broke down contractor.
    Drop and hook. But have to wait for a dock to drop in.
    Never a snap.
