It's a client thing, I was told. Tried to pick up 6 hard-to-fill, end-of-the-month shops, and had to leave an orphan.
You don't have to contact a scheduler for overweight regular shops. You just don't get reimbursed for the extra. I also ship stuff to my son all the time, and often go over. It's just a quick way for me to say I'm thinking about him.
"Let me offer you my definition of social justice: I keep what I earn and you keep what you earn. Do you disagree? Well then tell me how much of what I earn belongs to you - and why?” ~Walter Williams
