all the big one's do just slow at everything
day dispatchers look after 50-75 trucks nite dispatchers look after 100-200 and weekend dispatchers try to keep up with 300-400

Most have someone you can reach if you have a problem 24/7. However, some of the smaller carriers may not have a dispatcher on call 7 days a week. Some have a dispatcher on duty M-F and half a day on Saturday.
