Never heard of an independent dispatcher. I suppose they are out there. Do you mean dispatcher or are you talking about an independent broker... those I have heard of.

Hello, my name is Michael. I am a former truck driver with several years of experience who would like to start my own business as an independent truck dispatcher. I am looking for people who, for remuneration, would agree to teach me this profession. I would like to familiarize myself with every aspect of this job, from somebody that had already achieved success in this field. Should anyone be interested to teach me, and make some money in return.
Regards,
Michael Komorski
To the OP, Micha(e)l . . . you might have more luck looking over in the OOIDA world. The owner ops of the trucking industry can certainly guide you better than our training site.
Best wishes!

I like to think of it as Polish words directed at a Polish troll.
Did you look at the locator to see where the post originated?
Packrat "Locator to see where a post originated"? Is that a moderator thing? I only see GPS tracker stuff, but nothing post specific...

That individual was near Warsaw, Polland.
