    No back to back for me. Tho then again when I do get back early I don't reset my pta so they just follow the pta which is the time they suspected me back.

    I just put early pta in. The guy in the office said he knows how long the runs take so don't worry about it.

    I didn't have a load today, so maybe they have enough drivers now. But for the last two weeks they've been running me nonstop.

    Might try putting your PTA for 2359 the night of your last drop, even if you still have to drive back. That's what I've been doing. That's been getting me scheduled the next day.

    Mine is always off, but it's because I count my miles differently than the company. I write down my miles based on when I deliver so I can calculate my weekly paycheck. The scorecard is calculated when you're dispatched on the load. Even if the delivery date rolls into the next quarter

    No I had an incident at a shipper in tx where the docks yellow channels or something that shouldn't be there my trailer passenger door got caught on it and I was blinded by the sun when I went to pull up and straighten out it pulled the upper hinges of trailer door...shipping mgmr told me it happens once a week and I wanted to ask but didn't well how come you haven't taken these things down if there such an issue anyways he had me take an empty to run the bananas out and I got dinged...I was instructed at first to open up and slide tandems back on a Muddy dirt lot but the 2nd time he said close your doors back up first then pull up and open your doors kinda wish that was said from the gate but I got dinged no qrtrly for me last quarter... but I keep detailed track of all loads and it's inflated by 500 miles or so putting me over 10m when I was around 9750 last month and prior to that claiming I did over 12k when I did a little over 10k...I know I'm not getting the miles I've requested by my AM who runs 2 boards and have spoke to Mike about it...will call Mike again if anything but have backup companies... was just curious of anyone else was experiencing different numbers from actual miles vs app driver reported miles is all...safe travels

    My vacation ends today. Wife's therapy continues, but did a test yesterday and she is able to get in and out of the driver's side of her Ram, so driving isn't an issue. They have me headed to Jacksonville to pick up, delivering in Pageland, SC sometime tomorrow(appt not set yet), that is if I can find a trailer. My A/M said to check with him this morning about where they think one might be.
