There was a load posted on a board a few minutes ago.

Pickup 1-27-2009 at 8:00 am

The flux capacitor is broken in my Sprinter, so I don't think I'll be able to run that load.

What kind of rate would you charge to make the pickup and delivery times on that?

My truck in South Dakota got a load offer at 12:30 yesterday to pickup in Nashville, TN @ 1:30 but the driver couldnt get the rockets to ignite so dispatch hit the driver with a refusal. Where are they finding them these days?!?!?

I would be calling one's supervisor, or in this case, one's "stupidvisor" to get that taken off. Someone needs a geography lesson there. Are they still hiring temps?

If you're a Panther driver, please press 1. If you're an agent, please press 2. (presses 2)

If you know the last five digits of your pro number, please enter them now, or press 9 to speak with a broker. (presses 9 to avoid as much foolishness as possible)

Driver relations was as stunned as I was and promptly removed the refusal. But these 2 examples seem to be part of a growing trend. Alot of the new dispatchers seem to get "stuck in stupid". While there are many good dispatchers at our company, I dont seem to get them much anymore. I understand that practice makes perfect and some have managed to become perfect idiots, lol
