Millis OTR journal

How are they not working exactly?

 

Absolutely. You can taste the freshness compared to McDonald’s.

 

Well lost another day due to a messed up trailer I became stuck with at a shipper. Big flap of rubber just hanging off the tread of 1 tire. I only went about a week without having some trailer issue sabatoge another day. Old,very old.

 

Nothing happens when the switch is turned to the high setting. They go down to the stopped position and stay there.

 

When did Millis start allowing other companies to use their trailers? I saw a newer Millis trailer attached to a truck that wasn't a Millis truck this morning. It looked odd enough to cause to do a double take.

 

Ironically I saw a Millis truck pulling another company's trailer yesterday. I believe it said "The Tile Shop" or something to that effect.

 

Those are ours. Dedicated regional freight.

I pulled a load before I went home with a Dart trailer. They needed me to drop my empty at that new Mark Anthony place in NJ. But I still needed a box to put my next load in so I guess they borrowed or rented it. Picked it up in Bethlehem.

 

Was a piece of cake. Easy to get to and we have dropped trailers there so it's drop and hook unlike a lot of the other smaller DCs. Picked up a store load out of there going to Onalaska, so you can guess where my reload was from.

It's going to Midwest in Memphis. I understand that things have changed down there. What do I have to do differently?

 

They moved the check in door to the side of the building along where employees park. Other than that I don’t think anything has changed. Hurry up and wait.

 

For the past week it seems every load I pick up should have been picked up the day previous or was supposed to deliver yesterday, anyone else seeing the same?
