    Well with S...ft .. they change ur PTA without u knowing sometimes.Also, planners can turn ur macro 30 off so that u can't see what they have to offer(very true north of I-40).
    Sitting and sitting while they help people that have their direct callin number and help the ones that run out of their area first...
    Still, I am sitting as I type this message.

    I complain, but no one listens. I am so about to turn this truck back in..

    my record is flawless. They have no reason to sit me...

    and the freight is there. I am watching truck after truck go in and out of a DC.

    Get them on the phone and flip out. That usually works, or threaten to quit. They are playing games cause you are new driver and they think they can. Put your foot down and see if that helps.

    Ya, don't know how many times down south I'd be sitting waiting for a load, get a pre-plan come across, return the accept macro, only to have it bounced back because the load is no longer available. Yet another reason I left that company. Dropping a pre-plan on a bunch of drivers so they can see if they can be the first to respond is a sure fire way to keep drivers awake when they need to be resting.
