    Supposed non force dispatch.

    Example one sounds like an equipment/tool problem rather than a dispatch problem to me. Besides, SLC would have been a better search for signal heading than Cheyenne. Example two sounds like a failure to communicate or a didn't wanna. Appears to me it may have been a week end run that you...

    How Much are Brokers Charging Shippers for Loads? Here is an Example....

    However inexperienced, I admire your search for the "already roasted goose". I'm convinced, one day you'll find a kilt goose, or a dressed goose, or, one or the other. But.......you'll have to do way more than jes look rates up on the net to find the goose of your choice.

    info please

    Ya, well, sounds like a Carrier issue to me rather than a druther issue. I guess tho you can continue being "bored" after you deliver for a while. I really can't help what your Carrier is offering you to run your truck......you'll have to sort that out. However, there may be a day when a...
