Millis OTR journal

Lexington Ave was great compared to that XPO warehouse. Brought pasta there from Barilla in Iowa once. Less space than Lexington Ave. Took me forever to get docked. Overheated the clutch. Guy working there said it is a constant problem for trucks other than day cabs but you guessed it, management doesn't care.

I live in the area of the old Weedsport terminal and went to Lexington Ave a lot. Luckily I never went back to that XPO spot. Definitely liked that cafe at Lexington Ave that @keen98 mentioned.

 

Another driver told me the XPO warehouse was originally built during WWI for horse drawn wagons.

 

I'm not sure about that. Seems much newer than that time period but who knows. Maybe they did a lot of work to it! All I know for sure is large sleeper tractors with 53' trailers should not go in there.

 

I saw 3 old trailers yesterday. First was painted to look like the one from Smokey and the bandit, second was a Millis trailer with trailer tails and the last was a Celadon trailer.

 

So I heard something about a Millis truck getting stolen. What happened?

 

That's more than I heard, what did you hear?

 

It wouldn't surprise me with how much they've been sending out messages about airlock cuffs, but I haven't heard anything.
But now I'm interested

 

Wonder if it actually got stolen or just misplaced. Some of these new drivers ughhh!! Anyway picked up a new trainee yesterday and he is getting kicked out tomorrow. Went to the restroom at terminal and get back in truck and he is going through my stuff. Granted he dropped a phone accessory but wtf are there no boundaries???

 

Just someone in the FB group asking about who got their truck stolen.

 

Ew. I wouldn't put up with that either. He could've waited til you came back and explained to you that he dropped something and it fell in your stuff.
