    I took 33 from the Columbus loop down to Ravenswood. It's all highway now, with hardly any two lane. Very little traffic. 60 or 65 for everyone involved.

    I ran my clock out today. Now I'm set up to run all weekend. I should make it to Holland tomorrow, then I grab a load to NC for Monday. Keep busy, that's the ticket .

    I get to my delivery last night at around 8:30 pm and go ahead and give her my pick up number for my load and 10 am this morning and she said that load is a Monday dispatch. Now I am sitting waiting and all I get from customer service is we will try to find out something. 2 weeks in a row this has happened on my trip home. It is so much fun.
     
    Wickedfire77 Thanks this.

    Is it to the point you are looking elsewhere? Or do you have a long fuse like me ?

    Well lets just say that looking is not out of the question. I just found out a week or so ago that the contracts have changed and if we don't sign then no contract and lease is cancelled. This was to be a good program and I know that I am new to this and the learning curve is definitely a challenge. I am trying to learn this program but it seems to challenge me every way possible. But hopefully one day I will look back at this and say it made me better at what I am doing.
     
    Wickedfire77 Thanks this.

    Where is the current contract does it say that it is void if another contract is introduced? If it does say that, write your own contract with a more recent date and ask them to sign it. Lol.
    Sucks when they hold all the cards and decide to change the rules of the game in the middle of your best hand.
    Hope it works out for you.
    I also hope the new contract doesn't work like a phone contract and renews your length of term back to origin.
