    By the way for anyone who hasn't been given the message apparently there's been some IC's who've decided to send an empty calls on Monday nights on loads that are scheduled to deliver Tuesday and by that I mean they actually are delivering the load physically Tuesday but sending in the empty call on Monday so they get paid... The warning for this I know is if they catch you doing that your lease is gone immediately the first time

    Well I look at it this way the idiots who are doing this are probably barely getting by week-to-week because they have no #### clue what they're doing and they need every load on that week just to bring a check home... If you're in that bad of shape maybe you should just turn the truck in because you're not cut out to be an owner operator... and I'm referring to these people who are doing this

    If that's the case that's pretty sad.

    Well let's just say you have a midnight apt and you get there early and in a door by 11..I most certainly would send in an empty call before midnight even if I wasn't unloaded yet.. That's not being an idiot or living check to check.. For that matter why do we try to deliver loads early. Is it because we're broke idiots or because we're hustling. There is a fine line. But if you have a late on the day appt on Tuesday then it's kind of crazy.. Sni is just looking for reason to get rid guys.. Don't be fooled

    That is not what they're saying they're saying there's people that are delivering on Tuesday Mornings well after midnight that are sending their empty calls in on Monday night.. NB sides if you are living so far beyond your means that you have to have every single possible load go on to every possible leak and can't have one pushed to the next week because your girl under then you got more problems than you can shake a stick at and it's nobody else's but the drivers problem themselves

    @duddie ... besides it would be a good idea to get rid of some of these clowns over here on this program because they ain't what the flip they're a bunch of #### one of these they couldn't manage your own finances much less run a business and then want to sit there and beg and cry like a lot of folks on here too....

    I think a better question, that more people need to be asking, is why we're still holding on to the concept of weekly pay. This isn't 1950 anymore, direct depositors should be receiving daily pay/settlements.
     
    Ooops, mxpx148 and TennMan Thank this.

    That's the one thing I don't understand is why Sni don't pay soon as you deliver. That would definitely revamp this program immediately.. That's the one of the things I miss bout Mercer..u delivered before noon sometimes late as 2 your money was in your account by 5..u can't beat that
