What to do when a dispatcher tries to force a load on you?

In most states as long as one party is aware of then communication it's good. Here is a big but, the company probably has a policy about this that makes the recording worthless.

 

I never pushed to get the miles I drove consistently and always found a place to take my brk.I only took 1 brk a day for like 20 minutes to let my dog do her business.It was like after 300 miles then finish off the remainder of the day park it and let my dog out for an hr.I was very routine and consistent only time I stopped and got food and drinks was when I got fuel.Otherwise no trkstops.

 

I hardly did a truck stop at all, we hade so many service centers I could get to one of them. I was never unsafe when I got to where I needed to me I took a full 10 instead of counting the safe haven move as part of my 10 which we could do.

 

For the most part truck stops bored me.If I got fuel in the morning before staarting my day then I'd stay at restareas but if I got fuel at the end of the day I'd stay at ts.I tried to find anything but a main chain truckstop.those are the ones that bored me the most,pilot,j,ta and loves.

 

i wasn't a social driver. A service center had gas and a shower and that is all I needed.

 

But it's nowhere near as good as 11 hours and 400 miles a day is a joke. But I guess swift drivers have different standards.

 

I probably would have thrown out the universal "do the best I/you can" catchphrase and left it at that. Everybody knows what that loosely translates to...if it's late it's late and I'm not loosing any sleep over it.

 

What about 8 hours of time being what Swift allows a day

 

Keep in mind swift has like 18 thousand tractors so imagine how many drivers they have.The bigger the carrier the less miles no matter who it is.I think most the drivers for mega starter companies get under 3000 a week and some think their company is running them ragged.I used to drive no less then 550 a day and that was a slow day.
