Amen Brother!!!

 

A what a rough day today,think hp to a sav a lot in downtown philly.Sleeping at the dock,at my 3rd stop will get unloaded in morning,how's it going for everyone else.

 

Broker bailed out on us. I check in even early for our appt, "load isn't ready, we'll call you when it is."

They never called... This is in Compton, CA. Heading back to Colton, 7/11 truck stop.

Load was supposed to be going to Wytheville, then us getting routed to Richmond yard by Friday. Nope, not happening, lol.

 

I am always suspicious when the wording describes the poor trainee as being "used" and both trainer and company are making "profit" at the trainees expense.

Where else can one walk into a CDL school and get a license for $5,000... Walk into a training company for free.... Ride with a trainer for a few months while getting paid... And land a $50,000 job???

Let some have the mentality that the poor trainee is being used by some corporate monster... And the monsters sidekick the trainer... Ya, I really feel for those poor used and abused trainees...

 

Been pretty easy yesterday and today...
moving empty trailers and bobtailing...

 

@WotansVolkman were you driving south on the east side if Atlanta today? If you were, I think I passed you as I was heading north.

Stay Safe

 

Been in Brooklyn since 2pm yesterday, and I'm still here...NOT unloaded yet. *sigh*

 

But what a lovely place to hang out for a few days... And just think of all that detention pay...



Seriously, that sucks.
