    One of the reasons I stopped here is there's a billboard advertising bar b q.

    Yea, like 1.25 miles away.

    So the OM said just get the hungry Tabby deal. I got meatloaf. It's pretty good.

    $12 scale
    $15 parking
    $10 food.

    Deep in the ### cause got loaded, unloaded, loaded.

    I call B.S. There has been too much cheap stuff on the board sure. But after a few months (not years) he should have found which agents have good freight and which ones don't. I am an anti social M.F. and could do that much.

    If Dave can make it on Dog Food and water loads he should have been able to. Unless his maintenance, loan note, chrome payments or some combination of those were too high?

    Well The OM is working on our new 14 hours out, 14 days off plan.

    Like Schneider, we want to accommodate everyone.

    But the pay on that plan is somewhat low. And you need to have your own tractor and all start up coin yourself. And I mean all.

    I had a similar thing happen to me a couple months ago. I got loaded in gary indiana headed for california, i made it to iowa before my phone starts blowing up, it was dispatch.

    "Umm why is my computer showing you are in iowa?"

    "Ive got a load headed for california, remeber?"

    "No that load was CANCELLED yesterday you didnt get my message?"

    "No, they still loaded me, i even have the paperwork, with cali address..."

    "That load doesnt exist at all, turn around head back to gary. And we will get this figured out"


    Lol long story short. That load ended up not headed to california even know the bills had a cali adress on it . somehow the shipper screwed up with the paperwork, cancelled the load and then decided to ship the same load to some place in iowa. I got back to gary and had to pickup new paperwork then they had me run the same load back to iowa and deliver it ... Talk about a giant fuster cluck..got paid for it all so im not complaining :D
