Dispatcher's Calling???

Ive never had a dispatcher call or give me the werner QC buzzer excessively. Im always ontime. Maybe thats the diff. Right now im on a dedicated account with very tight loads and lots of them and they arent even doing it.

 

My dispatcher used to send me a message on the qual com when I was 120 miles from my final destination and I was moving at 65 mph, after I had been stopped for like 6 or 8 hours. He would get upset if I wouldnt stop the truck and message him back.

It always ticked me off.

 

I had dispatchers do the same thing. Annoying and lack of intelligence on their part.

 

It is amazing that they can not handle the simple math of 120/65.

But then again that is why they call sail boat fuel dispatchers brains.

 

Dispatchers have brains?

 

I would just message them right back and tack on "You know you're making me type this while driving again, right?" They quit bothering me after a while.

 

They must have . Several times on the CB I heard truckers hauling loads of dispatcher brains .

 

Can it then be said that your dispatcher was
blown away?

Hmmmmmm
I wonder if they mean they're empty or
deadheaded? :smt102

 

I can tell you they aren't worried bout axle weights .

 

Why would anyone give out their personal number so the company can use it for commercial use?


And Q-Comm messages get answered when I stop for a break.Not before,not after.Lack of planning on dispatches part does not indicate an emergency on mine.Not to mention all conversations should be documented.Covers every ones ###.
