Well, this load and the people on the Mexican side handling it haven't gotten their **** together yet...paperwork missing at customs since yesterday and not expected to clear today...Honda booked a 7 am delivery for this morning, I'm good but not that good...especially since it is probably less than 10 miles away but on other side of customs...so in honor of being here in Laredo, I give u the word of the day...
I had 64 hours of D Time on a load when I was At E-1....got tied up at border...never did make it you think I got paid for it? every shift of dispatch kept telling me...."Hang in there" LOL

when big cheeses realized on Monday Morning they called me off the load....the then office manager Larry Larson called me asking me what I expected for pay....I told him 62 hrs to which he said I had to be "reasonable"....really?

I told them I pretty much count on a day or so when I get here, but after that they need to pay me...don't think they will tho...unless u can tell me a secret on how to press the issue

But then again they haven't "booked" me on it, just preplanned on it, can't assign it to me until it crosses

There was a Houston run out of here that they gave to someone else, but they said if they get something sooner they will give it to me...

My thought is that Honda will probably fine the broker/shipper and meanwhile all the people in between me and the load are getting an income yet we get squat...
