    More proof that planning and dispatch don't communicate. I have been sending in updates of my trucks progress (or lack there of) every time the shop updates me. The last update was, I will probably still be here until morning. Planning just sent me a preplan for a 2 stop load that pick up tomorrow in Charlotte, 1st stop is Salem, VA for 4 am Wednesday...hello....I am in the Indy shop broke down (it's still 554 miles to my delivery in Gaffney)...

    I was there in April. Starting this year, the program is called the Clean Truck Check, any truck entering Cali has to be recertified every 6 months. This shop said next year it goes to every 3 months, but I just read that 3 month thing starts in 2027.

    Of course, look at the person running SPD's shop...she only knows how to ##### and drive a desk. So, Cali might be collecting some of W-TFI's diminishing profits from non-compliant SPD trucks.

    I guess I could just send them a free form message from my phone, I don't have access to the Peoplenet in the truck

    Yes you can send them a message through the app and they’ll get it… for future reference, even if you are completely logged out of the people net you can still get and receive messages because I get my preplans when I’m at home that way

    I have been sending repair updates that way, but I just tried to decline it by messaging them via the app...since my AM isn't in on Mondays, her replacement says that he can't decline preplans. I am honestly starting to regret coming back to this psycho-circus. Perhaps a new record, it took less than 3 months for me to get back to hating working with these morons

    as specifically remember I had somebody filling in for Ryan and this cracker head didn’t wanna do anything all day long and he had an attitude as well, so I went up over his head, and that guy took care of that problem…

    They'll get the message when I drop the truck off in Deland... incompetence is one thing, but disorganized incompetence is something that I cannot tolerate, and right now, this is the most disorganized group of incompetent people I have ever worked for. They make Big G seem like a dream team
