AAARRRRGGHH!! Frustration, frustration...

Ok, I last posted that we were trying to get out of our Ford dedicated account. Last week was finally our last week at that, and we're set for 10AM availability tomorrow. Sounds good, right?

Riiiiiiight....

First, we have no truck. We cleaned it out on Saturday and it went to the shop today to have a cattleguard installed (EWW! Poor girl, now she's going to be hideous!) so she can run on a more elk-prone route. We're supposed to be assigned to some beater truck that needs to get taken back to an operating center for trade, and then we're supposed to pick a more appropriate truck for teams. Sounds good, right?

Riiiiiiiiight....

Our STL from the dedicated account told us to call our new STL today to find out what's going on with the truck situation... like which truck we're taking. So I called and found out two things:

1) We're still assigned to the dedicated board
2) We're assigned to a load (WTF?!)

So, last call to our new STL had him telling me that he'd call our old STL, get it straightened out, and give me a call back. Well, about 3:45 (Pacific Time) I called back and was informed that the new STL had gone for the day.

WTF? WTF? What the f---?! We just want to run and make money. It would be nice to have been able to do that without someone botching the transfer. This is the first time that I've been disappointed and pissed at Schneider. Hopefully, it'll be the last.
