So you're telling me that you have all your trucks leased on to Landstar and run under their authority?
Because I was under the impression that you had your own authority, in which case if you're doing business with Landstar it's to book loads from them.
And people have said on here before that their own drivers get first pick at the load boards. So yeah, guys like you would get the table scraps the others don't want.
Unless you have beef with Landstar for other reasons. Do they call you for updates every 30 minutes? Do they take 6 months to pay?
Are they obnoxious, condescending know-it-all pricks on the phone?
That's a good reason to "unprefer" them. Because nobody likes obnoxious, condescending know-it-all pricks.
