    After my temperature reached 102.8 last night I decided to get the load removed so I could go home.
    I'll set an appointment with the clinic to get this checked out.
    I don't think it is Covid19, but better not to take the chance.

    That last Costco load to Eagan, MN turned out to be a blessing.

    Swift (Knight) terminated my lease on March 5th when I refused to sign an addendum to my contract.

    I took a couple weeks off then took a local job delivering milk for Fry's (Kroger). I hate the hours (generally start about 2:00 am) but love the fact that I'm home with my family and usually work less than 40 hours a week.

    I spoke to a doctor today and he is sending me for a Covid-19 test, even though my only symptom was a fever.

    He said that there are no official guidelines for quarantine with the only symptom being a fever.
    After the fever breaks - assuming I test positive - I would be free to return to work if it was within company guidelines.

    Riviera TX, deliver Space X load tomorrow at 8am. In Brownsville TX. After customer service having my DM ask me 3 times if we would make it before I picked it up. The reason being our rate would get cut in half if I was late.

    No aliens unfortunately, just a suspended walkways, or the parts to make one. Still tho, going to be delivering to launch control so thats still epicly awesome.

    Im happilly 12hrs ahead of schedule

    Ill leave out early, get there ahead of time, pull the tarps. And see if I cant find a place to park to go for a dip in the Gulf.

    Beach was closed, not allowed to take photos over in the space X facility.

    Literally Rocket bodys sitting everywhere.standing upright on rollers no less. I drove through them, they were everywhere just the external shell for the completed rocket even a few nose cones. Those suckers really look big when your untarping next to them.

    We will be picking up a frame rail load in Laredo over to Gaffney SC for another hot load.

    So what would have happened if you had your own dash cam operating while driving in there?
    Did they even check?

    Because with that you could grab some clips.
     
    FerrissWheel and dptrucker Thank this.

    No they didn't. Funny one of my best friends came up with the same idea.


    What they wouldn't know is my Rand Mcnally tablet has a dashcam too. But didn't think to turn it on. Must remember to use in future situations like this.
