fellow driver

Well I feel kinda bad for this guy but it worked out great for me. The load planner had me pick up a 500+ mile load 16 miles from a delivery. Well time for the delivery, short drive time the load time which should have been figured in or at least some of it by he planner. My 14 caught up with my drive time and there was no way I could make the run. I made 370 miles of it putting me over 500 for today then dropped it for another driver to pickup and deliver just under 200 miles away for the strict 5am delivery which totally sucks.

Well since I am running this weekend I caught a 700+ run from the Charlotte Service Center to Little Rock Service Center which one way is a 90 mile empty run to Charlotte to pick up the load and then head out.

 

geez quite a while back but I do remember my transitional fleet manager not being a transition. I got the same loads as all the veteran drivers. Shocked me

 

Glad you are getting the miles. Most don't get the manage your clock deal so they think they are getting screwed. It's about the clock and wanting to work. As long as you keep a good attitude on bad weeks you will be looked out for.

 

I am in Chattanooga right now.

and fill me in on this Jimmy Doyle's. Why do rookie driver expect the world to be handed to them also once they piss the FM off that controls runs after they are issued and reassigns them. Told me he almost passes out on runs up North so he can't run there. I told him he needs to find another job.
