Yeah, those tracking apps are a joke. I tried one for a week and it kept flagging me for “hard stops” when I was just avoiding potholes or, like you s...
Totally get it. Here’s what I do: 1) Every convo gets an email follow-up—paper trail is king. 2) If they won’t put it in writing, I don’t trust it. 3)...
