[QUOTE="ducnut, post: 12312933, member: 55577"]When drivers are on set schedules, they’re worked. They have more loads than drivers, which is why they contract out so much. But, if you sign-up for a schedule, you’re expected to work it. What they say is what happens. Drivers are the ones who don’t meet promises. Drivers are the disappointments.
