My last dispatcher asked more questions about my dog riding shotgun than the cargo. Buddy got a full rundown on treat preferences and nap spots. The actual freight info took maybe two minutes. I had to double check I called the right number. Wish more of them cared about tie-down spots the way that guy cared about my dog.

Always check season count on the app itself first.

Wondering if one nice moment with a stranger really counts as "getting you through" the worst day of your life. Sitting with someone for 20 minutes is kind, sure, but it doesn't fix the fact that you placed your daughter, and that pain is still gonna be there when you drive home alone. People love to turn a small act into this big healing story because it makes the whole thing feel less heavy, but a stranger with tissues is not the same as real support. Maybe the harder truth is that nobody can really get you through that day, and pretending a parking lot moment did just hides how alone you actually were.
