My first fight with a broker as an Owner Operator

Good luck with that. My customers will straight tell you to call the broker you get the loads from, they dont have time to deal direct with an owner op.

 

Has anyone ever actually sued anyone over that? What was the outcome?

 

Then you have nothing to worry about.

 

If

Oh its for the carrier too. read the fine print.

 

Nope but if they tell me a carrier tried to back door me, rest assured i will file a report on 411, Assure and no load them in my system as it say very clearly in our contract that was signed you cant do dat. If its really bad, ill notify our legal team.

 

Think we did once. It was settled, if I'm recalling correctly. This was years ago, and not on one of my accounts. I'd have to do a bit more research to give you anything more conclusive than "PPDCT's sleep deprived brain is half-remembering something."

 

Can't read the fine print on a contract I never recieved or signed.

Brokers sure getting hot and bothered on this thread...

 

just trying to inform the uninformed so maybe this biz can all go a little smoother all around, which would make my job being an adult babysitter a little easier.

 

Nah. This is what I mean.



This is pretty common language on the topic.

 

Ah, the truth comes out. Adult babysitter.

Maybe you should try driving a truck.
