    I've only had one day I didn't work due to no freight from either direction, this whole time. I'm sure I could press Central into giving me an extra load but what for, we have many guys needing work, let them get it. I don't need it. Once we get back to normal freight, I'll run an extra day.

    I honestly don't blame you one bit. Lots of guys got cancelled today so it's definitely getting ugly. We were booming, cyber attack.... Nothing.

    @EstesWest bro has your Samsara been going crazy with notifications? Mine has been annoying the crap out of me now. It now says "please reduce speed" when I double tap or go down a hill. It's so annoying because I keep that thing silenced. It even does it if I'm not logging into the tablet.

    I ran my logs off my burner phone and it's still making all that noise. Please tell me you found a way to turn it off lol.

    Noticed today the updated software. Ugghhh, big brother wants to make you safe, lol. I haven't done anything but I could see doing a temporary tape of cloth or something to muffle out the speaker facing inside the cab. No one would be the wiser.

    Dude it literally drove me crazy today man. We make good money, but I'm not a fan of the hand holding. I like to do my job and get on. Man I hope this doesn't turn into something like Schneider man!

    So boys I can CONFIRM the 6 day bonus is still active. Worked 6 last week and got it. Freight has been ok going out of the terminal on my run but on his end there's been nothing but empties. They've been cancelling him and just sending me elsewhere. He's been very pissed about that.
