    What does Prime do in a situation like that? Do you still get paid even though customer refused load? Hate it when you have to sit because of customer. Hope this is a better week.

    You get paid on the settlement that covers the time period that the load get's delivered in. It's possible to get stiffed for awhile on that revenue, have another truck finish it off perhaps, but you will get your share of the revenue after the bills are signed. We have stuff like layover pay, detention, breakdown pay, truck ordered- not used pay, etc. That helps keep you whole, but it doesn't make up for lost revenue.

    Busy busy busy here still. Another good week at Prime. Little over 2000mi and take home just north of $1400! Been talkin to fm about psd training. Not sure if I wanna do that or not. We talked about tnt but that would require me to be out 3-4wks and run all 48 so pretty well decided against that. PSD dont sound too bad though especially if I can get my student to pass on the first roll and get the bonus. Anywho sorry Ive been absent. Just have a lot happenin right now :)

    Well with the holidays fast approaching things are starting to slow down. Pretty sure gonna train after the first of the year. Dont want to start with holidays coming. Name of the game now is same as always deliver early and utilize all available hours that you can each day. Things being slower I should be on here more.
