    lucky, I was there in the summer. About 95% of the docks and parking spots were occupied. You also had a chicago 3 stopper? Unload customers were great.

    Do I need to check in first or just drop?

    Loaded call simply says to drop at Matson and bobtail for load. Have a live unload at 0600 Monday at a Cosco warehouse next to San Fransico. So I already know next load is just going to be great...
     
    tallguy66 Thanks this.

    The only drop lot I know of is at Zirkle, in the screenshot I posted. They have security to check you in and if I remember they’ll be the ones telling you if your preload is ready. Zirkle made me take the empty assigned to the load (?swapping empties???), turned me around to matson for half the load and I came back to zirkle to finish loading.

    oh ok, was just wondering because when I got to my first stop in Chicago the guy was talking to me like they get that load from us regularly.

    If anyone from Flying Pilot management reads this, I have a location for your next 'accidental' fire...E. St. Louis. That place could burn to the ground, and never be rebuilt. Went to do a partial fuel there (was told to get 60 gal). I also needed DEF and reefer. Put the nozzels in the tanks, and started the passenger side.(I generally only do one side at a time when I have partial fills) My windows were nasty from all that snow, so I did a quick passenger side window wash, and would do the driver side after I started that side fueling. Little did I know, the pump handle tripped after 1 1/2 gal...then timed out. So, I had to proceed with DEF, then reefer before I tried to restart...but then I kept getting the 'exceeded product limit' message. So, I requested a new solution. It gave me E. St. Louis again...but wouldn't turn on the pump...still got the same message. I said F-it and left. I HATE that Pilot...it's a good place to put a vacant lot!!!

    That completes today's rant of the day.

    Has any Creaffer drivers been having issues with Drivewyze? Laft commifornia 3 days ago on i40. It's ignored every scale between there and Memphis so far. Not a single beep boop jingle jangle or green red or white screen. Wondering if it's just me or if anyone else having same issue?

    Sure, that place is a dump but you’re an Uber ride away from Sugarfire Barbecue in downtown St Louis, Lumiere Place Casino, and the national Blues Hall of Fame! Just bring a gravity knife in case of rowdy locals…
