    I would consider using the same "volume control" that I use checking my tires during PTI...it'll never give you a problem again. And you can revert to paper!

    They are just wasted text imo, these should be sent to trainer trucks to work off of and not the actual fleet.

    Messages are worthless. They should not be sent to trainer trucks. If you cant trip plan then you shouldn't be a trainer. These plans want you to sleep at your final or shipper all the time. Good luck with that. But people in an office know whats best for people out on the road. Lol
     
    DocWatson and 27butterfly Thank this.

    Just came back from vacation. Got my trip planned and then I just ignored it! One model doesn't fit all models here at swift. I drive slip seat and we just ignore what comes out of pheniox

    Suggested trip plan had me showing up 6 hours early to a live unload and taking a 10 at the receiver. Then during the 10, it wanted me to do the delivery.

    Interrupted sleep is bad sleep. No thanks.

    Intermodel gets the useless spam too. Delete. Absolutely useless for any driver s far as I'm concerned.

    It's right up there with the barrage of spam you get after submitting an empty call, especially for a team. WTF do we need TWO reminders per driver to approve our logs, let alone useless reminders to scan the BOL? I wish we had a spam filter.

    These are some funny replies. I've been ignoring these trip planning messages as well. I'll stick to the way I've been doing it.

    Yeah, we definitely need a spam filter.
