    You should have called her up and thank her for her not understanding how this business works.

    ^This!
    You have the rate you are willing to haul for......never apologize for that. Besides, it's a good feeling to be able to stand on principle when so many others don't/won't.

    I totally get that. I have a handful of brokers that I normally deal with and I hate going out of that circle. It's like being in kindergarten all over.

    buckeyetrucker, You Did NOTHING WRONG!!
    You Were Simply Sustaining Your Future!!

    - - - -
    There have been (are and will be) "those drivers that get all giggly" that had taken (are and will take) 2000 +/- 500 mile Loads (from truck stop load boards) out of florida for something akin to $.59-.84 a mile at 44K.
    Maybe they were stuck (or drunk) for a few days, maybe they liked paying to haul.
    - - - -
    CHEERS!!
