    Ahhh ya Albany makes no sense to me and never has. We literally have 100 trailers there probably, a terminal right across the street, and getting a load out of there can be a pain in the fn ###. Idk what the deal is there.

    What I meant was this. I stay a week ahead because of load availability. If I finish a load I instantly add another one to get me to one week of booked freight. If I get lazy and let it get to 3 or 4 days out instead of 7, loads start getting crappy because they're gonna be picked over. Can't EVER go into a weekend with no loads. You'll be sitting for days or running garbage freight until you get ahead again. If you're going home for a three or four day weekend, you better have Monday's load planned at least a week ahead of time, or you're screwed and your stuck with junk freight posting for 2 bucks a mile. No thanks. And, you have to plan at least one load ahead of THAT load, so you aren't sitting at home on your time off trying to add to your 7-day buffer when noone's available to answer your calls.

    Absolutely. I mean they made us drive all the way to Connecticut earlier this week then all the way back to Wisc....and now they have the audacity to want us to drive all the way to Clinton Massachusetts by Monday? And we'll be shut down before noon on Sunday to watch NFL games allllll day long. These guys expect to fn much

    Yeah I got stuck down there a couple of weeks ago without a load. Thing is that I got a load out of the brewery pretty early on Monday morning after sitting there since Saturday afternoon. When I went in there and picked it up I bet you there was at least 30 Millis trailers in there. You can't tell me that at least some of those weren't loaded with OTR loads of beer.

    Yeah I'm sure there's worse docks out there, but I hope that I never have to see them. I hope I never have to see this one again, either.
