nope, no confusion just the end of the quarter and all randomly selected names have to be done by the end of each quarter.

Figured it out, I guess you were talking about a drug test. Didn't know what kind of compliance for the quarter you were talking about in OP.

Happy Saturday everyone. It's a brisk 42degrees up in the Detroit area. Hope everyone is running hot freight to stay warm.

Running hot freight and looking for shade after delivery today, lol: Milwaukee to SC. Oboy, I believe I can get the truck washed tomorrow! [Got a new "No Mopes" decal that deserves a clean place;)]
Last week, I entered the shipping receiving office at one of our customers, and the lady clerk was wearing a pink Load 1 shirt! That was pretty cool, I thought.

Over in Westminster. I was going to cruise to Spartanburg to get the truck washed [and maybe visit my cousin & her swimming pool, lol] until I saw where someone picked up a load here recently, so now I think I might just hang out till tomorrow, see what happens.

Happy birthday, Mrs Elliot - and please don't kill John for posting your age, because for one: we don't believe it, and for another, we'd really miss him. He's created more than a company - it's like a cult, but a good one. ;)

Do we have someone in expedite dispatch 24/7? I thought we did, but when I called in yesterday afternoon about a problem at my drop was told no one was in expedite. Got and answer from who I was talking to and a call back about a hour later from expedite.

We do have someone 24/7, but I think there could be times when there's maybe just one or two, and you might have called when there was no one there for about 5 minutes. I know there was someone there yesterday, they sent me a QC msg about calling the cons prior to delivery. Which I didn't see until I was at the delivery. [Phone calls I answer, but QC msgs I don't see unless I'm looking for one.] It was no big deal, I got there an hour early. :)

It was kind of a big deal for me. Got to drop and was told I was at wrong location, need to go 14 miles back up I85 to there warehouse to drop. Made call I mentioned in other post, was send there. As I get there expedite dispatch calls sending me back to 1st location, where I have wait another hour for them to get there yard driver in to empty a dock for me to back in. Going to call in tomorrow, should be some extra $$$$ for this.

It probably made no difference, as Dispatch has to call the customer and sometimes, they don't call back in any big hurry. When I picked up at O'Hare [Fri], I waited an hour for the customer to provide the AWB#, then the clerk said I also needed some paperwork: a pickup/delivery order that could be emailed, but not faxed. Why she didn't mention it along with the AWB, is a mystery, but I waited another 45 minutes for the customer to send that. The pickup/ delivery order was a first, but you'd think everyone knows the AWB# is needed to pick up the freight by now, sigh. Errors and omissions like that are frustrating, when it's the same ones, over & over.

There was 4 people on the expedite side yesterday. Only one was setting by truckload dispatch. The person might have looked up not saw that 1 person and said no one was there. The rest were on the cs side.
