    Can't you bobtail someplace for food on line 5? I am at the TA exit 4 on I-10 just a few miles from mobile. Come on over here and get some clam chowder.

    Wish I had seen this earlier when you still had some drive time. Would Schneider have had a problem with you heading to a truck stop or do you have to stay at the tank wash?

    I can't imagine them having a problem with a driver burning a little fuel for food and shelter. It does suck that you have to burn up your 70 to do it though. Line 5 is nice.

    If your waiting for dispatch you can go to a truck stop if it's close by...

    If 30 minutes after I become available for a load I still don't have a preassigned I will move to a safe, comfortable location. Usually I will call first to make sure nothings on it's way out to me, but SNI pays me to drive a truck, not be uncomfortable to no good purpose.
