    I also like how when the facts are reviewed, you've booked 2 loads by your own admission, and one hasn't worked out.
    Please start that TQL thread.

    Everyone else that can't make it at Landstar for whatever variety of reasons then chimes in. All .........two or three of you.

    They're the best thing going hands down.

    Actually I have been burned times, 100% failure rate. But why worry about facts.

    I haven't done business with Landstar since early 2015. I tell them I don't do business with Landstar pretty much every day.

    I've a had a couple of agents, and these are some of the better ones, ask me to take things for a delivery that simply didn't pass the eyeball test.
    So, if you went against your gut, start your thread on "I looked in the mirror. "

    And if you did go against your gut, it wasn't because the rate was cheap.

    Oh believe me, this has less to do with the rate. I just can't say anything definitive until after I've made my delivery and get paid. I do not trust this Landstar agent to do the right thing. I also want to talk to the receiver tomorrow to verify something.
