Some 25 years ago one summer night i was walking home from my aunt's house when all of a sudden i hear this deep growling sound. Too dark to see anything, not a bear since they don't live around there, probably just a huge dog. I didn't hang around to investigate, just started running. And i ran so fast, the beast didn't catch up with me, but i could hear it running after me....Never ran like that before, or after. That was instant motivation.

I've figured it out, ready now means when the shipper is ready now, they just want you sitting there for when it's ready now!

I've said it time and time again that term needs to be taken out of dispatches vocabulary. Ready now means nothing to the truck other than if you're feeling lucky.

a great program for some carriers to bribe good people to do bad things......LOL In Fastmans example...take bad loads....:p

"It's a program my carrier subscribes to that awards points to the drivers, for different things, like no load turn downs in a week etc etc"

Or teach CV drivers how to hook up a trailer....LOL

Throw that shovel away, you don't need to do that it will go away on its own. . You may be surprised how much snow a good leaf blower will get rid of. Depending on how heavy it is of course. It can make easy work of a hard job.

They offer the crap runs and unless they bump the money up I turn them down, but every week I get a email saying I received points for no turndowns. Maybe I should go watch the video on proper backing to score some more points.
