Cincinnati, 75

as i stated before. failure to plan on the part of dispatch does not constitute an emergency on my part. no sense in letting p/u times stress you out or cause you to be unsafe. its just not worth it. just keep them in the loop. communication is everything.

careful there turtle being so nice, dennis' cake will rise and then who knows he might wax your shell. LOL!!! both of you are rite on.... HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MR. & MRS. CHEF

yep like i posted in the " our company " thread. expediting is just another form of legalized gambling. sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. the important thing is to always make sure you keep what you originally invested. setting here in columbus, oh hopefully we can get something still...

guess that would make him guido come lately.

word of advice to all who have not learned one important lesson about expediting. learn to set, its going to happen. sometimes more than we like. no one can control freight volumes. those of you that cant are going to have a rough time of it.

ya how bout that, guess we finally figured out what it took. oh, mornin all and ken quit thinkin till you have more coffee. 2nd cup here.

not only did conway dispatch at 45 mph, they built an hour in at the shipper and the receiver for a two hour window. they did dispatch faster but they always asked first. we have always figured everything on 50 mph and normally we make it in plenty of time. we also dont let getting behind...

and a realist

Absofrickinlutely !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well john, we are one of the teams who recently started and you us us apologies for nothing. expedite is expedite, take it when its there and set through the tough times. anyone who takes on this beast without diligent research or lets that be clouded by $$$$ signs get what they deserve. we...

Is that something new? LOL. Sorry Jenny you left yourself wide open to that one. Couldn't pass it up. You owe me one.

Well we are still in brownsville. Think if we don't get one today we will see if they think we should move to laredo. Don't know if that will be any better but we will see. Have only been to tx. 3 times since we started with load one. Got rite out the first 3 times. May have to rethink this in...

I learned also. Doesn't happen all the time and I do have a deep trust for dispatch, but when it come to money I only trust the wife. I always ask or better yet just let them know what it needs to pay when they call. If you base it on all miles make sure you tell them loaded and empty. Since...

Are you one of them and it doesn't matter what company / carrier or owner policy is, you do what you need to do to help. What if that was your wife / daughter running down the road. Would you want someone to drive on by and just call 911 and hope they make it on time.

ya, as to the alternative. after 11 yrs, in this business we have learned to sit pretty good. doesnt do any good to be impatient. doest make the loads come any faster. having a sense of trust that dispatch is looking helps also. we have the sense that if we are sitting and not getting freight...

ya, i figure we will get out today. if not we will patiently wait. not like im gonna dh outta here.

good mornin all from the peaceful confines of the wally world in brownsvile. didnt get out yesterday, but what do you expect for south tx. on a monday. have a feeling today will be the day. been very windy down here, constant 30/35 mph winds since saturday. suppose to calm down today.

oh, i dont thinks so. ours is closer also.

wasnt big enough deal for me to even mark them in my files john. i will take note and send you some as they happen, but if the customers are providing the info, that i imagine is correct. i would think it is the ones pc miler doesnt recognize that are the issues. no biggie was just curious...
