    There were only 4 in my group.

    I'd rather them take their time and not push through a bunch of idiots lol

    Well, on my last load for the week. Heading back to Arcadia WI from Advance NC. Should finish up with 3150 pd miles and 120 on accessory pay. Not bad for the 1st week and having been out of the truck for a while.
    Had some snags learning their people net work flow. What an un user friendly system that is...could sure use some improvements. Used a Qualcomm based system where I used to work..way better. Oh well, I'll get used to it. I also do need to get a new gps. People nets gps is not very good.
    Hope everyone has a good weekend!

    Yeah don't trust the copilot that's on that dummy in the box. It'll get you in trouble

    I'm headed to OKC then advance. Will have less than an hour on the 70 Sunday when I get in if I figured right. If I pull it off I'll have a best week ever at 3713.

    Congrats on the mlg. That's what you call "booking in it". for me, I'm happy with around 3000 a week. Like to have time to get in a few showers and hot meals..lol.

    Lol oh I get all that in too. The Stars lined up just right this week but I'm usually at 3k or above.

    Just finishing 30 outside of Knoxville. 6 minutes to the good to get to advance. I'll be home for dinner.

    Correct.

    We do have an Atlanta yard. It's a drop yard we have space with another carrier there close to the Petro

    Why would you have to relocate if you're looking at Atlanta?

    The Atlanta guys just leave their truck there at the heartland yard when they go home for the weekend.

    Thanks for the clarification , i misunderstood
    Yes , being able to park my personal vehicle at the ATL yard
    would be great . It would save me the $1500.00 a year I'm spending
    on parking for the big truck at my current job.

    thanks again
