    USA (pronounced eww sa) truck needs a couple new macros to eliminated the need to type in the same message to your DM. (Pronouced travel agent) .

    Mac 4, use this when your LC ( pronouced usless) gives the same load out to 3 or 4 other drivers and they all get there b4 you.

    Mac 13, use this when you're preplanned perfectly and have very little time to waste and at your first drop/hook there are no empty trailers.

    Mac 14, to be used when for the mmpteenth time this week you've been given a bad pickup number.

    Mac 69, is for when you sent in an issue a couple hours ago, there has been a shift change at dispatch and you want them to go know they need to look at your previous messages and save you the problem of starting all over again.

    Got some more???

    I no longer use the QC, FM, LC, DISP (aka all useless). I go directly to the OP's manager via e-mail. Go to the OP's manager and get a 2000 mi load or go to the FM and get a 150 mi load and an excuse.

    Sounds like USA is unorganized.Think it's a mega carrier thing.I have little patience for it.After a couple times in a row I would start becoming irate.When I left Werner things like this was the main reason.Werner was happy I quit.

    Thats a big part of it. I think they should give those of us that has been with the company awhile a little more empowerment to make some decisions for them. It would definitely elevate some of the problems.

    Does usa have a suggestion box?Maybe they'll get the hint that dispatchers needs to get it together if enough drivers put in a suggestion.
