Hi all! I have a question in regards to teaming. I have spoken with my dispatcher about moving over to the team side and have been allowed to make the change. However, the person that I want to team with has not been released. They're on an different account than I am and as I understand, our company does not want to lose drivers from this account. We are anxious to get underway with teaming. Would anyone be able to offer any advice/steps to follow/folks at our company to talk to, to help us have any impact in moving this along? Thank you in advance for any and all advice!! Safe travels to all!!!!!

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.

First thing I would do is ask if they have any need for a team on that account that your friend is working. You never know - I am on a dedicated account that has had no teams, and recently the customer requested that we put a team on one of their particularly demanding customer's runs.
