My journey with Orange starts

Deleted.

 

271 miles today. My 2 hour live load turned in to 4.5 hours. At noon, the entire staff left to go to lunch for an hour. Must have been 30 workers that left at one time. They looked like chickens running out of the hen house because a fox was in there. Kinda funny. The wait was not funny. As I was leaving they were all going on break. Glad I got outta there.

New pre assignment is DH 47 miles to Pasco WA for a D/H and head back 250 miles to Portland. Yes, more pallets.

Stopped at the Stanfield Pilot for the night. Got here kinda late at 20:00. I did get the last MT in the lot from Walmart.

 

467 miles today. My day. Hermiston to Pasco to Portland to Hermiston. All D/H. Stop at the Stanfield T/S as last night.

Tomorrow, Hermiston to Portland to Moxee WA to Portland. Should be near 550 miles. All D/H.

 

566 miles on my loop today. Tomorrows pre assignment is to P/U relay at the OC and head 141 miles to Tacoma for a D/H. After that, head 17 miles to Kent for a live load of water going 240 miles to Hermiston.

 

Nice miles for the week. They are starting to recognize me in Hermiston. I set the cruise at 60 and have never been bothered. Yet......not sure if I will have to run on recaps again.

Enjoy your time off. I will take some TAH at the end of the month.

 

432 miles yesterday. 557 miles today. My now normal Portland to Hermiston to Portland run again today. Tomorrow they are throwing me a slight curve. Portland to Grandview to Portland and then on to Sumner for my reset. All D/H. Should be close to 520 miles tomorrow.

Another good week. Should be near 2800 miles for the week with a reset.

 

517 miles yesterday. At home for my reset.

2810 miles last week. So far miles have been good on this sorta kinda dedicated route. Basically just staying in WA and OR. There is about 25 drivers on this route. 90% of the time, just picking up loads of pallets and taking back to Portland. All light loads. Each load is between 11-15K. Averaging around 8.0 MPG. Did have 2 loads other than pallets last week. Both near 45K. So that effected my MPG.

If I lived in Portland, I could by home every night or every other night.

 

Thanks. Have a good time with your TAH. You deserve it. I have stayed home an extra day when they got me home early more than once.

Don't understand why people say the bonus is so hard to get and complain about it. Just do your jobs in a safe and sane way and SNI gives you extra money every 3 months. Pretty simple.
