    Just like clockwork, before I even picked up this sleeper load, they preplan me on a load going to Texas. But it delivers the day before I'm due home.
    Last time I was in that giant state was early September. Just Before the Ebola epidemic,

    Not automatic, guaranteed... New forms, that look the same to me (I haven't held them side by side). I didn't see any fine print on how it's guaranteed now compared to before when it should have been paid. We'll find out I'm sure, but just sticking "Guaranteed" on something with fine print doesn't mean much.

    Even the police screw up,

    Jan 9th is the National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day (LEAD) Their motto is "Take The Lead".
    Lead is a homonym, lead (to go in front of)/lead (a metal).

    I'm due home Monday and they offer a 1525 mile load to Utah that delivers Tuesday. And my 70 wouldn't let me deliver til Wed.
    They did void it. If anyone's near Conway, AR.....

    update, a load going to Hattiesburg that delivers Monday at noon.
    3's the charm, nope

    third load delivers Tuesday in Northern Indiana.
