They have given me great (2200 mi) lds then take it away and give me 300-400 mi trips with the same amount of time. They say that someone in the office made a mistake and these lds were not supposed to go to me. Or they send me to the wrong adress for pick up or delivery. OOPS! They make a mistake and I pay for it! Don't even think about complaining to them! They will make your life miserable.I was abused less as a company driver. Dispatch says they really care about my success but they don't show it. In May I'll be saying "SEE YA!!!" :evil:

just like ANY company some people like them and some don't, it's just part of trucking. :twisted:
the best thing you can do is GET OFF X D, x d is broker loads and thay are always ALWAYS f-up. it's better run now that Max's son isn't running it but it's still f-up :shock:
when i ran solo i was getting 2700-3100 per week and that was with a dispatcher that i didn't get along with..!
one thing i have learned is when you are complaining do you do it like a rational person or like a truck driver..? :? if you are calling them and telling them how thay are f-ing up your loads and how thay are all full of :dung: well just think how you would feel if you had some a-hole calling you and talking to you the way you talk to them.
i had one x d load (f-up) my fm said nothing he could do about extra pay for sitting all weekend because del time was wrong. one phone call and one email, 5hrs later a had 73hrs of waiting time on my fuel card..! it's all in who you call and HOW you talk to them.
has life always been great all the time with u s? no but when something goes wrong we call and TALK to them and it gets fixed.
your post is about the last "last 3 months" we all know how bad it gets this time of year but you were happy for the 7 months before that right..?
BTW u s is the only company that i know of that said if you want to be home for x-mass YOU WILL BE, this last x-mass with all the snow storms thay FLEW drivers home, and thay paid for it :shock:
if in MAY you still want to leave then you should go and see if the grass is greener someplace else. not every company is a good fit for every one and you should find a company that is a good fit for you.
for us u s is a good fit. good miles, nice new truck (volvo 780), good pay, and great hometime..
just my nickel's worth
