Ya know, I'm sitting here reading this reply, and just shaking my head, wondering how to reply to this to begin with, in the best way...I don't know, I'm trying to change my ways about things...Wondering if this is an open threat to me, or what...I mean, Something that happened over a year ago re-surfaces now, from a sentence in a post that really had nothing to do with this to begin with, right? And slapping a cross on my van does not make me perfect, or clear me of all wrongdoing, as I will fail in many ways just as much and easily as the next guy.But it is what I believe in, just as you,believing in a Turtle.

If you are so bitter about this, after a year ago, possibly longer, then, why, didn't you confront me about this when we were in the driver's lounge a months ago? We were there talking,and you sure did not seem too bitter towards me than....Do you not like face to face confrontations? Hey, I'd like to work this out, but something tells me you're not wanting to.But, if you would like to talk about it face to face, I welcome the opportunity,so this can be laid to rest... .so, be that it may, I will still say hello to you when I see you,and for the risk of being sued,convicted,or whatever, a hug will be out of the question..lol..

I've never met you face-to-face. I've never spoken with you in-person or on the phone. I don't even know what you look like other than how others have described you to me. Other than during orientation when someone took me into the driver's lounge, I've only been in there twice and neither time has there ever been another person in there other than than me. The two times I went up there it was to see if there was anyone in there, and there wasn't, so I don't hang out in there at all, as I have TV in the Sprinter and the lounge is too many stairs just to go up there and watch TV by myself when I can already do that in the van.

Posting lies such as you have here is not really the way to... how did you put it?... oh yes, change your ways about things. It's the same old ways, just different lies.

I would have been part of that line up, but yesterday when you were working through the single digits I was working my way down from 22 in line. I bailed on you guys, and it almost worked with a load out of Lansing, but after they finished building the piece of equipment it was 1000 lbs over my max. Number 2 in Grand Rapids.

Aww, eb, I think I got that one - going to Ky, right?
Maybe next time they'll downsize it, and you can 'steal' one from me.
Now I just need to remember that sometimes, a left turn can be made from the left lane
, lol. [Yes, that's a snipe about how much time I spend in Michigan - if I didn't want to see the rest of the country, I'd have got a job in Mi!!!] Ok, no more complaints - I looove dispatch, really. ;)

If his lugs are fine, as you attest, then why would he make up something about a meeting and a conversation in the driver's lounge that never happened?

You quoted Scott and that's who I was talking about. The rest I know nothing about. Not my business. I'm done.

It's good to hear that load stayed in the family. They are good people there. The kind of customers that make you want to go out of your way to help. You should have seen it when they put it on my van. Springs bottomed out and tires squashed out like I had a couple flats. Without me having to say anything they offered to reweigh it.

Yep, the guy on the forklift said they'd tried a van first, and they really are nice people - the kind we don't see enough of, most days. Here's hoping they ship a lot of stuff! [And that you can haul some of it, too.] :)

That is what I was trying to do! but, he has to drag this out into some kind of crybaby let's feel sorry for Turtle soap opera.I am trying real hard to be the nice guy, apologized to him in one of the several pm's he sent me.And, yes, this is not a case of me "Wanting to hear only what I want to hear." I listened what he had to say, and agreed with some of it,after long thought, and admitting my wrongdoing in the past..recently.It is as if he has nothing better to do, than to drag others into his pathetic life.vegetating in his "Shell" so to speak..hiding behind a computer...And that is exactly what he is doing...I sure hate to see his blood pressure, that's for sure! (mine is 117/70, by the way..)And how did this whole thing re-start itself?? With me just saying what I said in an earlier post yesterday, and .....boom! And some wonder why I didnt even log on to this website for so long?? The only reason I came back on here was It was mentioned to me by someone who spends alot of money on here and that I have great respect for that it would be nice to see me on here again...So I did.....so now I ask myself, Why?? This is exactly the reason why there are so many non-members who go on this site, to read this garbage, but never want to join.What a shame.I'm done with this.

Dispatch notes for units on the planning screen is a weakness. We have 37 current system requests/upgrades pending with our software provider. Being as we can't do those kind of changes ourselves it is often frustrating and slower than I would like. It will be 38 on Monday if I am understanding correctly that the qcomm's cut off the messages we send and you are not getting all of them. I was really sure notes or special instructions already came over. EB if you could give me that order number it would be a help.

2 things. 1 I don't mind constructive thoughts and debate over ways that we can work to probe yours and our customers experience.

2, toilet is fixed thanks to Rocketman.

Instead of notes, would it be possible to have a "hometime" macro that works similar to oos with city state and date. A different color could show up in selectus instead of green. Maybe as the time gets closer to the date, changes color or a color bar. All visual and automatic.
