Of course.. there were 19 when I left... ugh. Got one nibble, Jersey run, no hook set.
One of these days I'll find that crystal ball.. gets a bit frustrating!
Home.. not sitting in the van that close.. if I'm gonna be frustrated, it's gonna be comfortable at least.

When I returned home after a month I was surprised (ok shocked) to find a new pilot being build about a mile from my house. This is going to very convenient and I can't wait for it to open. I'm amazed at how fast they did it. It should be opening up any day now.
Pilot # 596- Port Huron, MI- I-69, Exit # 196

One of these days I will take the RIGHT advice... feeling a little foolish and a lot frustrated at being down here when the yard emptied out.

Wurd up...
"busy" can be at best very subjective and argumentative...
Turtle once referred to us as "The Ambulance of Freight"..I am starting to think we are more like the the "Ambulance Chasers of Freight".....we hang out and wait for a screw up by some shipper or logistics person...or some machine to break down and rush in to save the day and charge them 10 times the going rate......
Just read todays qc message about communicating via qc. Just wondering what other opinions and or experience is.
Myself i do not mind using it unless it is a case like i am at the shipper and need additional info to make the pu. I do feel dispatch needs to improve response time from my experience. Also i think at times it goes unanswered because they feel it needs no answer. I am of the opinion it always needs an answer even if it just the 10-4 we received your message just so we are not wondering if the message was received and read.
Just curious about how others think.

Yes...from what I've heard from others, responses are almost non-extent AGAIN....we had this issue last year as well....MJ Sr. put his foot down on dispatch and it was good for awhile...
