    oh those are it's good points lol.......what a ridiculous place to get in and out of. then they lock up your keys and you have to sit on a bench and wait to be called and have to be present on the dock during loading as well. you know when the guy with the daycab and the 45 is having a ##### of a time getting in the hole you're going to have fun. i'm pretty sure when that place was built and the docks designed they were hauling freight in model t pickup trucks. that's about all the room you have to maneuver to get in the dock. and whatever you do, don't take a wrong turn leaving out of there lol your day will get interesting real quick.....but at least I did a lot better with getting turned around and out than the guy I watched (almost) make a U-turn in the intersection. at least I didn't do that lol I found an alley to back down and get turned around....but he didn't quite make it . his day was worse than mine. he got hung up on a concrete barrier in the middle of the intersection.

    Domino in Balt at one time was only using odd , or even doors . Made since you got 12 doors(?) and two forklifts ! Makes no since to fill every door just to wait 4 hours to start loading.

    I guess you're missing my point! If I get in on Sat. at say 1130 and load isn't due until Mon at 1000 about an hour or so away! Why leave on Sunday afternoon? THAT'S MY POINT! I can't be in at Sat. at 1130 and be expected to leave NO LATER THAN 1200 on Sunday! THAT WAS THEIR POINT! My point was COUNT THE FREAKING HOURS AND LOOK AT MY DEL TIMES! I'm never late! Why should I leave out and drive 1 ####### hour or 2 hours and stay the night at a parking lot, when I can sleep in my own ####### bed, go to bed early, if needed, and go deliver and go from there! Getting kinda fed up with it, to be honest!

    really getting annoyed with my computer.....enter key won't work so I can't make new paragraphs.....only on this site it works everywhere else....I had to have hit some key or clicked somewhere I shouldn't have......got a really nice one.....884 with 2 stops......until the appointments get set and the final is firm for TUESDAY......and today is Wednesday which puts me home Friday after the first stop and the final delivers 15 miles from the house...... I've watched my miles go from great to #### near nothing in the last month......hopefully I can drop this one when I get in and run something else out for Monday.....but at least i'll get the first good weekend I've had home in many many weeks.....
