    Pretty much my experience there. Just a couple of ####### yard dogs.

    And yet another, flatbed post full of ketchup.

    Delivered the Kawasaki racks from Ontario to Lincoln on Tuesday. From there did a quick jump over to valley for a next day delivery in grand island for the NEBRASKA STATE FAIR.

    After that I went back to valley to pick up a load of poles that is due in Brenham TX tomorrow (Friday). Parked at customer currently.

    Next two moves are preplanned on me. Brownwood TX to Valley (I’ll be in valley Saturday to drop it). Then a fence load from Lincoln to Riverside for next Wednesday. (This should give at least one more parking spot at our drop yard for yall.)

    Also, happy 1 year FCC-iversary to me. I could go over numbers. Or I can just say that I’ve been employed with FCC for 366 days and my truck has 140k miles on it. I’ve put 137k of those miles on it. With typical hometime being between 4 and 6 full days off in a row, plus the time at home on either end. (Living in Tennessee, your results may vary).

    Another metric I have in my notes, is 127k paid miles (as of last week, OOR plus another full week explains why the odometer and the paid miles I have given differ by 10k)

    Which with all things considered gives me 2447mi/wk. But with my amount of hometime, my spreadsheet looks more like 3000, 3000, 3000, 700.

    As stated, your results may vary, and a reminder that this is for the flatbed division.

    Have the quarterly drivers advisory board meeting this morning, is there any issues that FCC drivers on this forum want mentioned?

    I think it’s more related to how few of us there are in the division, they have to pass around the baton :happy8:

    Thank you!

    How many flatbed trucks are there? I kicked around the idea a little, priced out a cabinet rack, but never actually spoke to anyone at the office about it.
