Loggin on "Line 3" for TMC

You are way too funny.

 

I think its a fm transmitter. My load to st. louis got cancelled before I even started heading that way. Instead, I bounced to Charlotte to pickup a load of steel headed to fredricks maryland. My intent is to get this thing washed today, as I will be driving right past a wash area. This is a good paying, easy to drive load. However, Im not sure if I can make my 0800 appointment at consignee.

 

Good for you Jeff. Im glad to hear it. I like the Gaston terminal. I think the shop guys do good work.
As for my load, Im sitting at a rest area on I77N in Virginia. I have about 51/2 more hours to drive. I qualled night dispatch as soon as I realized I wasnt gonna make on time. He gave me lip. Man, Im so sick of attitudes. Its not my fault I cant make on time. Its not like Im out here friggin around. Just like normal, I get to the shipper early, but by the time I leave the shipper, Im running late. That is definitely something Im gonna bring up at tqm school.

 

Well, I hope Im not getting "pissy." You have to understand what I gave up to be out here. Its tough for me to have went from a "master" to a rookie. Im trying to do well. My personality, I want to be the best at whatever it is I do. Im not competitive with other people, only with myself. Would I do it again? The whole truck driving thing? I dont know. Ive heard that the 1st 6 months is the hardest. I dont know if Id do it again.

 

Thanks guy. I have faith that it will get better. 10-4 on the wife giving a hard time. Would I do TMC again? YES!!! Despite all, I still think its top notch. My hardest thing is just finding my "groove." Im sure once I get a rhythm going it will go well. Im in my late 40's, so Im kinda set in some of my ways. Im not an animal, therfore Im not gonna live like one on the road. Im hoping school this weekend will help open my eyes as to what it is Im doing so wrong?? Trust me though, I will keep posting.
