Roehl Driver Check In

668 miles today and even got fuel. Didn't think I'd have enough to get to my fuel stop with mountain driving it kept fluctuating. It was like ah I got plenty to oh #### I don't back to I should be able to make it. Lol. Light load so I didn't slow down too much and Knoxville traffic I breezed though bc it's Saturday or I just got lucky. Flying hook on the west side. Had 20 min to spare. Should knock out the rest for my 3rd grocery load for Hammond LA.

And GoBlue I drove through Chicago 5 times in training 3 of which were in rush hour at night in the rain. Chicago is a breeze wait til you go through NYC then Chicago traffic will be gravy.

 

Then you can have it. Don't want it, don't like it, don't care. All the drivers out there can say what they want, oh your a whiner, not a real driver; on, and on, whatever - it sucks as far as I'm concerned.

 

Yeah all traffic sucks and personally don't like to sit in any of it. I've gotten lucky going through Chicago sometimes just not skipping a beat thinking awesome not having to deal with it. Just a comparison

 

I feel better now. This sitting since Friday afternoon has gotten to me. Broke down and actually paid truck stop price for newest 007 movie. Get going tomorrow pickup about 40 miles away and off to KC. Actually since Thursday afternoon not yesterday. See, can't even get days straight.

 

This weather has to be kickin the crap out of shipping times,even hear i'm getting sick of plowing snow and salting parking lots.Just curious how are the trucks in the snow I suppose it depends on the weight on the wheels their was a real bad accident on 94 by menomonie this week a truck crossed the median and went into the river and both drivers drowned so for gosh sakes be alert and safe.

 

One more thing are the health benifits any good at roehl that kinda seems to be a deciding factor in the pursuit of trucking companies.

 

They offer health, dental, vision. Different plans with different prices. I don't know what they all are. Have to ask specific questions with recruiter.

 

Quiet in here tonight. What's the matter, everyone struggling, trying to figure out how to change their clocks?

Or 76th j and h truck stop off us131. What u guys/.gals think.

 

Hey your right around the corner, I'm stuck in Findlay OH. as far as parking extended and not being in the truck. Ask whoever owns the place, or management. If they see it there for a long time, and no activity it might get towed, others might want a fee. Do we have a drop yard close to you? Sometimes that's an option too.
