Problems with ontime pickup and delivery.

Since I have been solo, I am having a problem being on time for the shipper and con. I am always running late. Weather, traffic, accidents, etc... I leave on time, and I only stop for fuel and restroom breaks. I don't eat sitting still till the end of my 11-14. Yet I keep running my 14 down and having time on my 11 left. This tells me I am taking to much time somewhere. Problem is being with Werner, I can't stop my clock. So if I am waiting to be loaded/unloaded, I gotta run my 14 hr clock down.

It also doesn't help that dispatch keeps my times tight. Once I am late for one run, it seems I am late for the next four. I run refer dedicated and a lot of our stuff is drop and hook. so I am usually from shp to con in 1 day or 1 and a half days tops.

The worst is when I get to a Wal-mart. Never drop and hook and No overnight parking! And when I drive all day and put it in the dock, 9 out of 10 times I run out of line 3 on the lot. I usually go ahead and chance it. I roll out and hope to find somewhere to park before the qualcom picks me up. Usually this puts me in a parking lot or dirt strip somewhere. It sucks. And dont even think about being late for a Walmart load. My lat one I rolled in one hour late, they said "we will get you done when we can" Which means I will be sitting all day. And sure enough, they called me unloaded with 15 mins on my clock. No time to get anywhere. I hit line 3 and rolled, needless to say I ended up 45 mins in violation just getting off the lot.

I need help. This is costing me $$$$ and time!!!
