Random LTL Rants (all are welcomed)

I just ordered up a Carmart jacket. Warmer and more durable.

 

I got to work today and my tractor had a flat tire that it developed over night! Mercy Me oh My!

Anyhow, I called the garage and they had roadservice come to the yard and fix it.

However, I was able to get one of the new tractors I'm not real hip on the new 2018 Volvo VNR's I think there cheap trucks. It's not my company it's Volvo cheapened them, the older models I think had better interiors. I wasn't real impressed.

 

I don't know about you guys, but today just flew by for me. It was another run out the clock Monday. Infact I even nick named Monday's Run Down The Clock Monday. Finished with 30 minutes left on the old e-log. Last Monday I finished literally with 1 minute left on the e-log.

 

You work way to hard. Course you would probably die of atraphy if you slowed down..

 

That is clean compared to mine.
I have so much tools ( bungee cords, nylon straps, binders and chains and extra tarps, Spill kit and any weather gear and gloves and a cordless sawsall hammer pry bar whatever you can think of on my passenger side )

Yins all must be sissy dock jammers lmao !


( DUMPSTER DUDE )

Reality, everything is used and my tarp box is already full with heavy duty chains and 2 tarps for small and big boxes. pretty much a tow truck with out towing cars with tools.

 

Only thing i miss about LTL. ABF said no overtime those few months! Heck yeah !!!!
DON'T THREATEN ME WITH A GOOD TIME !!!!

 

Well you have tools that you need for work. This guy on the other hand had garbage laying around and some empty boxes from medicine.

Meanwhile at Mclane....



Then this Volvo driver parked next to the fence and other drivers had difficult time backing to the door

You guys think these harbor freight chains could handle the stress of dragging the occasional obscure pallet from the bulk head to the rear?

Cabinetry is always on some hugely long pallet my jack cant fit under conpletely making it almost useless - I figure I tie the chain to the pallet and to a customers forklift and we just drag it out.

This is just a thought to make my LTL life easier
