    Stockton, CA - a day early so I can squeeze in a reset. A little slippery through one stretch of WY, but 40 and sunny at Donner Pass, can't complain about that.

    Boise City, OK waiting for hours to come back on my 70.

    Still no plan on getting this load delivered on time. Daily updates to dispatch and daily responses that they are working on it.

    Given the distance the only way this gets swapped in SLC is if it goes to a team. I can't get to SLC until early Monday. Distance is just outside solo range from there given terrains and Oregon speed limit.

    Now say I meet a solo with a fresh clock somewhere North of Ogden, then they could make it on time.

    I estimate a 50/50 chance they will have to suck it up and Im stuck with the load and deliver it late by 10 hours. It's frozen fries going to cold storage. Why the rush?

    Whats the Delivery date on the Bills say? Reason I ask is that we had several loads where Primes delivery date was much sooner than the required delivery date on the bills.

    No dates on the bills.

    Yeah, I learned long ago the only dates & times that matter are the ones Prime sends me on th QC.

    This is all on them. I told them Thurs. morning almost 12 hours before pickup and about 15 min after they sent the assignment.

    I'm not concerned other than it would be nice to have a gameplan for a swap.

    Yeah, my trainer just went through the same thing, but the bills had a date of 1 Feb on them, so the load was rescheduled. Was just curious about the date is all.

    Exactly(what's the rush?)....I'm guessing you'll be heading to the 90..late, but like you said, that's on them!!!

    On a side note, the Qualcomm being down Friday really messed things up. Does that happen often U2?

    The guy running our board this weekend didn't inspire much confidence in me yesterday. Didn't hook me to mt trailer picked up at Walmart, so had to call him to get it done. He says it may be a bit 'cause he needs to get someone to do it for him. Then tries to tell me I need to call fuel desk for a P.O. to top off reefer because I'm not under dispatch. Convinced him to turn my card on and it worked like always. Says he's new to the company side, but you lease guys do drop and hook right?

    Nice guy, just doesn't seem to have much experience.

    Oh yeah, at the home 20 for a paid week.
