Been out solo one month with Prime. So far Prime has treated me great. Nice new truck, good miles, great dispatcher. Glad you guys talked me out of teaming. Solo is great in a full condo. I stop take and adventures on downtime, go on hikes, hotel room, ect.. Spent Friday and Saturday in Vegas now parked outside of Portland. Love milking my clock good at math. Arrived at 1200 sleeper birth till 2000 drive to appointment 5 miles away at 2100. Two hours off duty there hopefully may milk it a bit. Then boom at 2300 I have a full 14 hr clock as i depart. Hehe think I'm getting better every day. Loving the lifestyle thanks to everyone who supported me on this crazy journey. P.S switched to reefer from flatbed. Like both may go back flatbed eventually but for now honing backing skills.

Dispatcher:

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.

Reefer:

A refrigerated trailer.
