That's ok. I waited a long time for that run. I certainly wouldn't give it up for free food.

Things have been going really well. I have been all over the Eastern part of KY. I have learned a crap ton of customers. Also I have gotten in my replacement for my broken RM 720 and it is really working well. I got in a RM 730 and I have to say, I really am impressed with the updates and the quickness of the processing over the 720.
I was even more so surprised when it was more accurate than my Google Maps during my local deliveries today, I was rather shocked.
I get the fun experience of trying out the docks tomorrow morning before heading out. -
Just peeking over the fence to see if the grass is really greener up in Grayling MI. Anybody got an opinion? It's a small barn but it seems they're always looking.

I'm consistently at 42-45 hrs each week. Not sure how busy they are, but I like it so far here in Lexington91B20H8 Thanks this. -
I took a drive by last weekend and it looked like maybe 6 trucks parked there.

Things are going well still. The only thing that I really have seen is we don't have any "assigned" areas for drivers, but because of the way the previous terminal manager treated the routing, some of these guys treat it that way. They cry, moan and gripe about being pushed to other areas and stuff like that. Quite honestly, I really don't give a crap where they put me. I see it as a challenge and something new to pass the time.
Does anyone else have "assigned areas" for P&D for drivers or do you all just swing to where ever they put you? -
Our bids are both "area" and "start time" based. The one I took over earlier this year has an 8:00 start pretty much covering two counties.
Although, if there's enough freight going there, it may be just one town within one of those counties.
