Takeaway

Relationships make freight life better

The day-to-day life of a driver, dispatcher, broker, etc. can be tough. Crisis after crisis can make some days feel like an eterenity. Reflecting back on my time as a broker it's clear that one of the best parts of the job are the relationships you create, the people you grow to trust. That could be coworkers, partners, carriers, brokers, vendors, whatever.

As a carrier rep, the relationships I had with my carriers kept me going. They were valuable to me in executing in my role, but generally they were valuable to me as a human. Trusting someone and being trusted by someone are powerful feelings and likely critical to satisfaction in general.
