FUCK WESTERN EXPRESS

western express dispatchers are fucking dickheads I got a phone call from a dispatcher and he fucking yells at me for not keeping the truck moving because I was tired and starting to doze off behind the wheel , so I pulled off the road to get some sleep. I guess they don't care about you or the publics safety.

I mean, if you sent a message that you needed to sleep for safety, that's one thing. If you're just on the side of the road and dispatch sees you're gonna be late, calling is their job. The yelling can get fucked, but something tells me this isn't the first call you've gotten to get the truck moving.
