I hate Peoplenet, where are you parked and recipes thread

Since half the population of God's waiting room came from NY/NJ, were you expecting anything else?

 

no one who has a choice stays any further south then Fort Pierce
get in and get out
just a few hundred yards past the Loves on Kings Highway
is Pride Truck Wash that has girls in short shorts clean the inside of the truck
No I don't know how good a job they do

 

Jamestown. NM. The old Giant Travel Plaza.

 

Every single one of them is that way. Anytime I see, "limited parking" on the peelot app, I steer clear.

Had an amusing conversation with a swift driver a moment ago. We are both parked at the shipper with little to do.

Part of it was my...interesting...backing job.



There's two ways of backing into the docks. Pull out and around, then back in off the street (kind of a busy street.), or nose in next to the stupidly placed dumpster and turn as tight as you can.

I don't like to back in off of busy streets if it can be avoided. It took some extra maneuvering on my part, but took nosing in next to the dumpster.

They told me to get into dock 9. I looked at the location, laughed, backed it into dock 8 and told them to deal with it. Thankfully they didn't protest, especially after I told them that swifty in door 10 wouldn't be able to get out if I used dock 9.





Told swift that when he got ready to go, I'd detach from my trailer if he needed.

Got 481 miles to go, hopefully (though I really doubt it) I'll make it back to Forest Park. There's a drop and hook waiting to be delivered to a nearby store in Atlanta by 7am tomorrow.

Couldn't tell you exactly how old it is, but it's got a model number of TRC-447.

Edit:

Yep! I was right! Soon as swift nosed forward I knew he wasn't going to be able to get out. I dropped my trailer just as he had his doors sealed.

 

Used to have to stage empty at the Pilot in Medley quite a bit. Took a regular CAT load to Miami and if it was the weekend then I would get stuck there for a day. The showers are pretty scary too.

 

Reloading at the Toy Factory for another state fair stuffed toy run. Dispatch didn't have my confirmation yet and they do afternoon loading appointments anyways so I took advantage and came to the J to take a shower courtesy of the Duo's.

 

... uh oh ...

 

Dang...after those hunt for red October references...

Now I want to watch the movie...

Guess that's what weekends are for!

Going to have to get my laptop in the truck...The 5th of November is coming up.

Dump the tanks! Full stop! Full reverse!

 

Good ! .... these poor folks shouldn't be subjected to such pain as seeing a pic of me anyway. .... Hey Duo !! ... is this your Pop in law's ride ? .... not as cheesy as the other one, but still cheesy enough, eh ?
