<p>[QUOTE=&quot;OldW900AOwner, post: 10619461, member: 297895&quot;]I just got home yesterday from a week out, and I had to get two brokered loads to get me from the northeast to East St. Louis, Ill. where I needed to get to fetch a John Deere loader to bring back home.</p><p><br /></p><p>The first load had me wondering why I even bothered with it, although it was easy, light and quick. But the money was putrid. The next one I needed to get me the rest of the way from Columbus, Oh. to East St. Louis. I was on the phone with a broker friend of mine with her helping me out to find something for the next leg. She even was kind of taken back with the rates being so down, and she was looking at a couple of load boards while we were on the phone together.</p><p><br /></p><p>By a fluke, and I do mean a FLUKE, I was playing with my phone while sitting in Columbus and was checking my Trucker Path app for something else, when I saw a LOADS button. I clicked on it, threw my info into the fields, and lo &amp; behold I find a machine 45 minutes west of me, not a mile off of I-70 going to within 100 miles of E.S.L. that the broker asked ME what I needed to get...not the other way around. Then on top of that it was a COD load, so I got paid when I put the machine on the ground.</p><p><br /></p><p>That was great, but it certainly isn&#039;t my normal way of obtaining RGN work, LOL. My question still remains, how come there aren&#039;t decent paying, or decent people to do business with on the mainstream load boards anymore? Or maybe I&#039;m just not on them frequently enough to develop a few relationships like that, I don&#039;t know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
