<p>[QUOTE="x1Heavy, post: 8433846, member: 178676"]A dispatcher in a trucking company has 100 children to take care of today. 60 already have their load assignments and are proven mules, reliable and on time more or less. You hardly hear from them. That leaves 40. 20 of that is the steel core elite of the drivers in the company more or less. These are the ones who get the loads that must not be screwed up. And are given preferential treatment because these are special loads and they cannot be screwed up. 5 are coming out of Orientation that week. God help them. 15 are in need of special care. As in short bus special care. Hand holding as they weep driving the twisted Virgin River Route in NE Corner of AZ.
