Funny Coincidence
Topic 25258 | Page 1
Congrats on the 1st home purchase!!
Mine happened in reverse. I submitted the paperwork for my longest load after the cutoff. I had already asked my FM to push through a shorter load that I did after that. I wrongly assumed that this would automatically push through the prior one. Boy was I wrong.
Imagine the look on my face when I saw $300 on my settlement. Now this week is gonna be over the top.
Yes!! Congratulations on the new home.
BMI:
Body mass index (BMI)
BMI is a formula that uses weight and height to estimate body fat. For most people, BMI provides a reasonable estimate of body fat. The BMI's biggest weakness is that it doesn't consider individual factors such as bone or muscle mass. BMI may:
- Underestimate body fat for older adults or other people with low muscle mass
- Overestimate body fat for people who are very muscular and physically fit
It's quite common, especially for men, to fall into the "overweight" category if you happen to be stronger than average. If you're pretty strong but in good shape then pay no attention.
Fm:
Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager
The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.New Reply:

TT On Facebook
Awhile back someone mentioned they had a personal record pay check. I can't find the post but I mentioned to that driver that for years to come you will continue to beat your best.
I'm currently shopping for my first home. The bank just asked me for my last paystub.
And I had 1 load that didn't get in on the previous weeks check.... So this check was a whopper😁 That load happened to be 2000 miles.
I know the bank will understand that isn't common. But it just made me think of that post. And hopefully those thinking of going to school or maybe your in training or just having a rough patch... Light at the end of the tunnel. A reason your doing it...
