Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

Costco

 

Some of the extra weight might be pallets, but I only have 30 pallets (according to the b/l), so even if they're CHEP pallets, that's only around 1500 lbs max. I just hope that when they unload me I don't have an extra pallet or two of product that they didn't order that got loaded by accident. I have hauled out of that customer many times and I usually don't get a load this heavy out of there.

 

####...the driver's seeing eye dog didn't notice the flat tires when it was peeing on them during their walkaround I guess.

 

They had me on 2 preplans, sent to me while I was in conference with my pillow. One picked up out of our drop yard in Channahon and delivered in Melrose Park at 17:00, then they sent the same load they sent yesterday to Henderson NC, but instead of a live unload, it became a drop. With me delivering 1st thing this morning then having to wait until 17:00 to deliver #2, I would have used most of my hours today delivering 2 loads and wouldn't have enough hours to run enough miles on the Henderson load so that I had enough time to deliver there tomorrow evening and still have enough clock to make it to a truckstop that might have a parking spot. Besides, after getting the #### kicked out of my back driving this apple cart across I-70 in Indiana, my back feels like I am tarping flatbeds again, so I am really not in the mood.
