typical meat plant

[transam pete]

well here i sit in liberal ks. typical meat plant never ready already an hour past the drop dead time. DM says once loaded give an ETA. Exactly how do i figure 30 hours of driving and 3 sleep breaks not counting pre trips post trips fuel traffic not to even think about a breakdown ugh

Just tell dispatch, you'll get there when you get there.

I agree gizmo.I mean they don't care about how long you sit so why care about getting the load there when they want.

Every load is a "HOT LOAD", well you, me and zillions of others will always know, "keep me here, and your crap ain't ahh gonna make it there"..

HOT HOT HOT,LOL.Can't be that hot if you're sitting there for hrs.That's when my attitude starts to show.Dispatcher is either going to work with me or repower the load.I quit kissing ### because they don't appreciate it.

If his load is a HOT load, then that meat will be cooked by the time he gets to NJ..

I've always hated lds that you're waiting literally hrs onto nite time before load is ready then your company ecspects you to bust ### getting the load there.They think you had all day why did'nt you sleep then.That's easier said then done when you had a good night sleep.
