Magnum ltd - fargo, nd

I already tried. First I got a dispatcher and was told I ran some good miles on it so it was rejected, but they said I could talk to a DM and if they decide otherwise, so be it. Only 1 DM in when I called and they werent answering so I called OP director and asked how they determine what qualifies for layover. I was told basically, take the miles it is, divided by the days to run it and if its over 350-400 miles a day, it doesnt really qualify.

Im just being a cry baby twat. Im so bent on miles because we are performance based and I want to max mine out, or even get ahead so I can take some home time and keep them maxed. But then again, Im tracking every metric I can and making sure its in good order, except mpgs.

 

Man, I ran so many of those. I started knowing the names of the people at the assorted stops

All the rookies obsess over their numbers... you will soon realize you don’t have much control over them. When I stopped caring and trying so hard and just did my job I got the best numbers

 

Stop obsessing over numbers. I did that early on when I was OTR. Eventually I got to a point where the only number that mattered was my gross pay.

 

What they said lol

 

I will admit its hard to do when your cpm and gross pay are a result of the miles. My numbers are solid, Im just hungry for $$$. Will be nice to make more than 38 cpm, couldnt imagine working for a mega making less.

 

Was supposed to be home tomorrow, was supposed to pick up a load in Alexandria, MN today to get me there. Broker gave dispatch the wrong load date information. I brought the discrepancy to the attention of dispatch and proceeded to wait more than four hours on any kind of word from Miller or Chad. No response. Nothing. So now I have to decide to sit all night with my thumb up my arse like a neutered little bee's itch, or high-tail it back to Fargo and turn in my truck. Either way I'm done with this company, the kool-aid has lost its flavor.

 

If youre donezo for good, really no point in sitting around in the truck flustered is there? Probably will just make ya more mad and stressed out.

 

It comes down to convenience and timing, for example, it's much more convenient to clean out the truck during hometime than in a hurry while p.o.ed at the yard. Waiting also provides a fatter final paycheck. And honestly I'm abnormally p.o.ed right now, so much so that it's probably not a good idea to be behind the wheel.

 

Right on. Didnt know if you were one of those people with a car on the lot, lived close by, little stuff in the truck, etc. Just thought being so close to the yard might make you feel better just to close this chapter and move on.

Hope everything works out for you and you find something that makes you happy. Another driver gone with others on the fence.... starting to see the writting on the wall I think.

 

Uh oh...sounds like the unicorns took a whizz off the rainbow and it filled up the koolaid pitcher at Magnum.
