    So at this point AXE with W/S, do you know where you're to go next; waiting on your dispatcher?

    Curious how it works out.

    Wasn't snowing this am when I left, but I believe another front is coming in Monday.

    Normally no, but when I called to get this load (couldn't qualcomm due to the safety oos for pee test) was told I'd be picking up a load of sugar going to Arizona. The last couple of months I've been getting my next load assigned via the Qualcomm before I've finished the load I'm on, so a lot of it depends on the dispatcher. I know chris and I believe A/T as well are in constant contact with the inbound dispatcher getting the next load setup. I'm not that proactive! :biggrin_2559:
     
    American-Trucker and 2021DREAM Thank this.

    I too like to make sure I have my next load before I'm done current load, depending on where in country I am, it's usually not a problem...

    Sittin at delivery, Lincoln Electric in Lithia Springs, GA, for 8am unload...I need to get rid of this trailer(2409), although lights all work when I check them, I was getting light warning messages most of the way down here, made sure I only drove in daylight as I'm not sure what's going on when moving...

    So, what kinda happens next (no to be too nosy); get a steak and wait by the Qualcomm 'til morning?

    Dispatchers work for you on Sunday's?

    there is a weekend dispatcher but she doesn't get loads for you, only there for other support I guess! If you're not setup for a load running over the weekend you sit for the weekend.

    Probably as soon as I send in my empty and available tomorrow am (maybe even after she gets my arrived at final stop) I'll get the next load assignment.

    You're not being nosy at all, great questions! I hope we're answering them clearly for ya! :biggrin_25514:

    I, on most occasions, can get a weekend load assigned to me on Friday while under load, unless I need a reset...

    Ask and you shall receive!!...
