    LOL, I'm not sure where that came from. I suppose that if you don't KNOW Mercer then you could think we are forced to do anything. We are not! Somebody said a better example, an agent needs a load covered. They call basically begging. They have a ridiculous low rate so I have a ridiculous high rate. Maybe we meet in the middle. Maybe we don't. No hard feelings. My statement was that sometimes our coordinators are "forced" to call us about a load that needs to be covered. And yes I will help an agent that has treated me well because I'm a high class who're. But we are never forced or required to take a load.

    That is impossible to answer. I have a 240" WB. Too short for me. Yet others have 226" WB and are ok. To many factors to calculate.

    Hours to be gained = number of hours you get back on your 70 hour clock at midnight. 2 days= number of hours you get back at midnight the next day.
