    You are wholly justified in being very unhappy. There is no justification for doing an employee that way.

    Going into your sleeper and pounding your meat after the company just took a giant #### on you is the correct path then.
    Unbelievable.

    Getting some great advice here! Like the many hooker metaphors and also the “rub one out” so you don’t do something rash. Pimps, hoes, masterbation...Thanks :)

    That is a situation where you send a polite message to your dispatch.

    "I just busted my tail for barely more than minimum wage for several hours to give another driver an easy money load. I would appreciate it if my next load is good enough to make up for this one."
     
    IluvCATS Thanks this.

    I think tit for tat won't work here. A good load does not make up getting royally screwed over. He needs to get compensated for his work done.

    if it happens again it's your fault.
    Learn to say no or be run over.

    They can only get you once, anything after that it
    All on you.
    I would have gotten a load back to the yard and
    Turned the keys in.
     
    IluvCATS Thanks this.

    For me, IMHO, that needs to be screamed at the right person and fixed with a good chunk of money!

    Clean it up and send it! You must. IMO if you are flatebedding for one of the biggies then you can go anywhere and drive any type of truck tomorrow morning.

    It sucks but I can't look myself in the mirror if I don't fight like a pitbull for my time.
