An old man's career goes flat, Snackbar moves to open deck

Got loaded this morning w/o issue... that's 1 in a row. I picked up 20 pallets of assembled 11" 5/8 bolts, nuts and washers. When I saw the description of the product when the sent me my load info, I though - no way I am picking up a flatbed load of that. But sure enough, nicely boxed, banded and shrink wrapped. It is going to a small town in TX who is having a large solar farm erected and these are the fasteners that will hold it all together.



It seems that the greater Orlando area is a hotspot for solar equipment. I have picked up frames for solar panels multiple times all around there, and now the fasteners. He said they ship 5-6 loads of these a week out of there, most of them have a lot more pallets than mine.

 

Our Sam-crappa units have that option, so far we haven't heard about any implementation of such things here, but I bet if they start doing that, they might have to reintroduce the mega-sign on bonus to attract anything more than seat warming, steering wheel holding, short-bus driving school graduates.

but the funny thing is, if you see one driver get out and do even a minimal lights and tire kick walk-around, others decide to do one too.

 

The Sam-crappa has been doing better with the auto-arrive and depart location, until today. When I was over 15 miles from my delivery...boom, it said I have arrived. When I got to the little poe-dunk Peelot 12 miles from my delivery, it shows me having departed and completed the load. Samsara can bite my butt.
