    so, tuesday i pick up truck and come back to salt lake for my load. there's only two loads going out. and for some reason. another truck got his load cancelled and somehow managed to get my load that i was booked for and he wasn't.

    came back home and picked up on wednesday. deliver to denver. go to get my reload at 9 a.m. they waiting till 2 to load me. they close at 3. at 430 i'm tarped and headed to TS for fuel and dinner. my gauges are looking a little heavy to i scaled out.

    82,000. so my 600 mile drive 10 hour drive turned into a 13 hour 675 mile drive. around three scales.

    make delivery and get my next load. gauges are heavier then the load i just dropped. i'm thinking 84,000. told them to take one off. closes cat scale was 40 miles away. and i want to come home. they debated for an hour before they finally took one off.

    i feel sorry for you guys with no gauges. some of them shippers can be realy arseholes if they can't load you HEAVY.

    week 2 and still no contract to see.
