Central Refrigerated Truck Stop

Is it GOAL or should it be called GOALS? Get Out And Look STUPID!

Yes I am a newbe, but even with a little time with with CDL A it doesnt matter. I have in twenty plus years of driving and keeping my eyes open. Knowing what is going on around is a major factor.

 

Hi all, I have been stalking and learning for a couple months now!
Me and the Hubby are starting school Jan.17, cant wait! Pretty much every question that I have thought of has been covered somewhere on this thread! I really appreciate all the insight and knowledge ya'll share with us newbies!
Ya'll be safe and I'll be stalking!

 

I guess sometimes you just need to raise a little hell at grocery warehouses. I went to check on my paperwork the guy at the desk said that the receiver is still breaking down my load. Out of frustration, I said, " That's funny, because my receiver is standing 2 ft from you!" He then said, "Oh, he went to lunch." I reply, "I am already here for 4 1/2 hrs so far, So how much longer do I need to wait? 1 hr, 2 hrs?" He didn't answer so I went back to the truck. The minute I got back to the truck, they call Nero get my bills. Obviously they were done before I even went in to check and were just messing around in the office until I caught them!

 

where you at in Indiana? If you are on I-69 stop at exit 59 and say howdy

 

It should be GOALS. But not every trucking company things that way. We have it posted on every trailer so its hard to forget. Even when I know I have 10ft to go I get out and look just to make sure. I don't care if I take longer than the other drivers are wanting to wait. If they are stubborn and stay in their trucks and don't offer to help they can wait. I have only had one place I had to have help getting into and 2 guys helped me. Now if I know Im really having a hard time and no one offers to help Ill get on the radio and ask. I have no qualms about asking. Id rather do it right and safe then hit something.

 

No I was on the 70 headed to Ok. Im in Joplin Mo now taking my break at the pilot before I finish my run tomorrow.

 

across the street from the pilot is the home of the chrome shop mafia the guys on cmt's trick my truck tv show if you got some extra time go over and check it out its a really cool place. plus the iron skillet at the petro bext door is by far the best skillet out there

 

I think ill be at the TA Oklahoma city east tomorrow when I shutdown with my mystery appointment load.01 had no appt so I called them to make my own appt. 99 in carnage mo still has no appt and delivers on the 29th.

 

When you get to the TA, turn to the north and wave at my brother and his family for me. Taking my HT in PA, for Jan., with the sis. Won't see the bro till Feb.

 

Well today had been a trip. I delivered at 10am this morning and it was taking so long for them to unload me my 14 was going to run out before I could even get part way to KS for a pickup. That sucked lost a 1500 m load to FL now I have a 860m load from the same place in KS to WI. Fooie Oh well such is life. I'm still learning and will have many more like this I'm sure.
