I honestly don't think that is what happened. You don't even know if Jamie sent him an email, which at this point it appears she did not. He should have had you bring it to the yard.

I respect the right to call a dispatcher out but channels and chain of command should be followed. If a dispatcher called a driver out on here for a driver mess up I would come down on them hard. I think the facts should all be ascertained before a public trial.

As I told Turtle, I have no issue with people posting issues or problems. We run an open and honest business. The bad comes with the good. My only concern was that till a problem has been researched and the facts all brought to light, I do not feel it is fair to single out an individual on here. At least not without running the chain of command and making sure that their is not another side to the story. I in no way want to censor negative things about the company. We have warts, we make mistakes and we F it up good sometimes. The difference is we try hard to address issues and we try to improve. We all need to do what we have always done, good or bad. No need for you guys to argue, Turtle and I talked earlier and I think we were in agreement. You guys bust your behinds and have a very frustrating job and we need to do better at improving communication and reducing the parts we can control.

As for good comments, I personally think that is fine. But an employee shouldn't be judged in the court of public opinion. That is something that should be handled through business channels. The same way that I would handle a driver issue and with the same respect. As many of you have seen first hand in the last week.

Been that done that...while we all feel our side of the issue is the right side,and we do tend to almost always figure we were the grived party, and when I did this I didn't take it as a dilberate attempt to decieve.....but i was still pizzed none the less...But that being said, the trust I built up wasn't shaken to the bone, yea i did start requesting "some info" when called, but I still let most of what would be required from other carriers...on a whole, we work with honest people that work hard for us...I'll aired my incident here and got 4 calls on it. The issue will never be taken care of as I would want, but I understand why they did what they did, don't agree, but I now know their point and position..and thats makes it a better situation...

Yea, when you give that trust and you feel taken advantage of, its a biotch, but I'd still not "throw the baby out with the bath water"....they are still the good people we all trusted and most still do....Just my "penny in the pond"...

Hey dad? Can I borrow the car next? LoL.

Nah, mine wasnt 'junior', and it was quickly resolved, understood why I backed out, 20 min later had a good chicago run
As a matter of habit, since we dont have 'confirmed/unconfirmed' like Fed, I ask if its direct. Only got stuck with one once, luckily it went right by home.
