    Technically its called a FM modulator! Who cares though right? So I am down for my 10 in Beech Island, SC. I deliver this stupid mesh wire in the morning in Augusta. I really hate this stuff. It's so unstable. I have been super careful with this load and it still shifted a little on me. 18 miles to go in the morning and done with it. Pre plan for a load to KY in the morning. I just have to figure when I will have enough time for a dang truck wash. So many things to do so little time to do it! Good night drivers!

    how are you logging at shipper, you might have to be in the sleeper when you'r at the shipper to get some of those hours back it not fair but they don,t give you much of a choice.

    I have to show 30 minutes for load and unload. Everything is logged on line 2. Is that fair? Not sure. But if you dont you will run out of hours before your 8th day.

    If your taking the correct routes and not wasting time in truck stops, your not doing any thing wrong, when you get a load check your route & hours to get there if you don,t have the hours then they should give you another load. You made the statment that you might be doing somthing wrong. might be that their giving you appointment times that you cant do just let them know before you take the load. when i worked there thats what they did to me.

    Lately the money aint there. Well, let me say if I could have transflo'd all my paperwork for this week, MY revenue is $1,100 and some loose change thrown in for good times. Im still having a tough time with the schedule. Its killin me! I left south eastern pa this morning at 0600. I drove all day. All day. Stopped twice to pee. No other stops. My comsignee was a suburb area of north detroit. My appointment time was 1530. Did I make it on time you ask? Well of course NOT!! Dont be silly. I was an hour late. In my previous life, I was NEVER late for ANYTHING!! Just like now, I didnt have time to make it to the shkpper by 2000hr. Nope. So now in the morning, I still have my bounce, then load, then secure, then drive to consignee, unload. I didnt get to shower today, so it would be real nice to wash my arse tomorrow. And Im sulposed to be in Desmoines saturday morning. Guess who aint gonna make it??? This is what Ive been crying about for the past couple of weeks on here. I hate rhis " run run gotta go" feeling.
