mercer transportation

The guy that calls you and tries to talk you into loads you already refused, or was refused by your coordinator.

They love to leave out details like it weighs 48k and you can only scale 46. Needs an 8 foot tarp. Goes 750 miles but can't deliver for 3 days.

We'll ok, most arent that bad but it still always sounds like a sales pitch when they call.

 

It has actually happened. I don't believe it was intentional but still if i hadn't of specifically asked the weight it would have created a big problem. I look at the run down board as the coordinator training board. It's the guys that want to be coordinators but don't know jack yet.

 

Gotcha now. I've visited the coordinator training room before just to see the faces of who's calling me with those loads lol.

 

Anyone else getting paid at 9pm?

 

Monday I scanned in my BOL at 10am and didn't get paid until 430pm.
Tuesday I sent it in at 1pm and was paid by 130.

 

Mondays always took a long time for me cause it's so busy.

 

I scanned mine in at 11am. Got paid at 830 9 that night. Its weird to be paid that night lol

 

Might have had problems earlier in the day and they stayed late to get caught up...I've heard of that before, and it's greatly appreciated.

 

Stopped in that that truckerfridge place. They want $599 for a fridge for my truck. Found a couple online for $450
