    They have always paid me like normal for those. Last tour with Shaffer, they bobtailed me from north of Toledo to the VA trailer manufacturer and then to a shipper and I got paid my regular rate

    Let it go in one ear and out the other… These people in the office they go into full panic mode if a load can’t be delivered by a certain time… My attitude is if the customer who shipping it is running behind, then the load will get there when I get there not a minute sooner and I’m not at all concerned about it

    I just asked for an update on my load, they said they haven't heard anything new, so I told them that any of these Costco loads I am offered in the future will be rejected as unproductive. If enough of us do that, they will realize that this dedicated account isn't as profitable as they thought.

    I’ve never run any Costco loads to Aurora out of Fremont. All my loads have gone to the Costco in Salt Lake

    if you come to the Hershey warehouse in Lebanon Indiana/Whitestown and they give you a 24 hour window. Don’t believe it… I left the yard about an hour ago to get over here to sit in a line of trucks because this place isn’t even open yet the gates are locked and the guardhouse lights are turned off

    Since we can't go in until we get a trailer number to check in, we can't show arriving. Without an "arrived at shipper" message, they have no way of proving I was here. I am gonna message Cory about layover when he gets in. If he refuses, then that's it, no more mister niceguy.

    I'll never pull a load out of this shipper again. This is worse than the reload circus at the coffee creamer customer last week.

    I’ve gone in before I drop my emptied show arrival and got detention
