THIRD PARTY SERVICES IS MOSTLY AUTOMOTIVE FRIEGHT THAT IS VERY DISCOUNTED. LIKE .80 PER MILE AND SOMETIMES A LOT LESS THAN THAT. IT'S A PAIN IN MY EYES CUS IT NEVER FAILS THERES SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE LOAD FROM THE VERY BEGINING. ITS LIKE THIS. A SHIPPER CALLS IN FOR A LOAD. IT GOES TO SO MANY DIFFERENT PLACES THAT BY THE TIME THE DRIVER GETS THE LOAD ITS SO DISCOUNTED AND THINGS ARE ALL MESSED UP. LIKE IF THERE WAS A LINE OF PEOPLE AND YOU SAY SOMETHING TO THE FIRST PERSON AND THEY TOLD THE NEXT AND THE NEXT AND SO ON BY THE TIME IT GOT BACK TO YOU ITS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO WHAT YOU TOLD THE FIRST PERSON. WE HAVE DONE TPS LOADS THAT WERE OK WITH NO PROBLEMS. BUT MOST OF THE TIME THERE A MESS AND THINGS XHANGE ALONG THE WAY. YOU CAN ACCEPT A LOAD THATS COMFIRMED TO DELIVER THAT NIGHT AS SOON AS YOU GET THERE. AND WHEN YOU GET TO THE DELIVERY THERE CLOSED. AND YOUR STUCK WITH THAT LOAD UNTIL THEY OPEN. AND SOMETIMES YOU END UP HOLDING THAT LOAD ALL WEEKEND. AND NOT GET PAID TO DO SO. AND THATS NOT RIGHT. IF THEY'D GET THE STUFF TOGETHER IT WOULDN'T BE SO BAD. BUT THEY NEVER WILL.
