    Just drive to your terminal bro lol. You gotta eat that. What you CAN do to *break* the system is do your 34 at the terminal closest to you but be DOMICILED out of the farther one. That way, you have PRIORITY over other drivers because you're "not at your home terminal" when you're off the 34.

    Went home today

    Basically, 2225 mile week. Not nothing too crazy. I might go to Dallas and back tomorrow then just stay off until Tuesday night!

    Ok boys so because I had a crap week, as usual, on the east... I came to work yesterday. Just went to Knoxville and will be going back home shortly. Bad news is I broke my trucker mug.

    Sometimes being the trainer-safety guy for my yard is fun. (Not Estes as most you know) one of our contract drivers backed in next to me. He says he hears a loud pop.

    Well his truck caught the service gladhand. He’s telling I ain’t paying that repair bill. Uh yeah you are. You break it, you fix it.

    This is par for the course with this guy. He’s breaking something every time he’s taking one of our loads.

    Potentially, but as wild as Estes is with these trucks man if there aren't any autos available you'll just be sent home. I still say it's worth applying. You can always get the restriction removed later. Secure the job first and foremost!
