    I got so lucky today, it took literally about 2 hours straight refreshing the board, I got 4 trips to get me through until Monday thank god... It wasn't looking good, man FW it's a battle out here a battle I try to win everyday lol it's all about who's got the fastest fingers! And playing it SMART. I got a message on my Qualcomm while getting loaded telling me to call as soon as I'm loaded, so I do...and GO TAKE A DRUG TEST. what a pain in the ###, my ICA tells me there's truck parking across the street lol yeah RIGHT more like a small dirt lot with canyons going through it. Whatever...it gave me time to lurk the board and get 2 of the trips covering my weekend...it's time to go into cut throat mode lol

    I camped this crap all day, nothing but trash man.
    Besides when I went to get my ice cream and someone beat me to a load that confirmed.
    If nothing good comes up tomorrow morning I'm gonna take anything to get me to Ohio and stay in the midwest.
    Northeast regional is totally dead now, I'm done with it.
    Wait no I didn't say that, Northeast is great... everybody come come ;)

    At least there's always loads on weekends there. Barely anything here man.
    I ran good mon-thursday.. then everything died.

    Use to I could always find good work here 7 days a week running regional, first time ever nope!
    On July 4th I got a load from NJ to VA like 300 miles for $2. Had better loads on a holiday than now. It's crazy

    I've got loads booked all the way to Dec 1st now. Even had a load this morning confim I had been waiting on since monday that was paying $1003 for 432 miles. My alarm clock went off and a minute later all my devices went off telling me one of the loads I was waiting for confirmed. Had to call in and have then remove 3 loads first so I could add this load in between a couple other loads and then they re-added those other loads back on for me.

    @freightwipper Is that map the only report you look at for what market is looking good on freight?

    Dec 1st? holy crap
    Look at you sniping out loads, calling in and etc. Playa lol.

    That map was Schneider's "market update" map.
    I only run midwest and Northeast. I never had any issues with loads till lately and that map I don't really care about but it does further show how trashy everything is.

    I only book 1-3 days out. It's extremely rare I go beyond that, especially so now that winter is coming I might narrow that to 2 days max.
