    I got empty last night around 8pm then deadheaded 145 miles for my pick up in Orangeburgh SC going to Allentown PA for tomorrow, then back to Pittston. Right now I'm sitting in this rat hole of a shipper waiting my turn to load. What a disgusting place.

    Indeed I agree. Those headlight kits are crap. I ended up mixing up a blend of strong 3m compound with a bit of lighter 3m finesse compound. Worked my headlights up with maybe 2-3 passes on a microfiber cloth and used some elbow grease. What a difference it cleaned them up real good and removed most of the haze. I can actually see at night again their almost like new. Gonna work them over again soon but weathers been crappy but I polished more than enough to be able to see at night.

    Are you taking the greenstamp or 309 to 81 from A-Town to Pittston? If you run 309, you go right through my town. I'll keep a look out as I think I'll be running a few loads through myself.

    I'll take the greenstamp. I want to get to the terminal as soon as possible to drop off my paperwork and get my new load info to go home.

    OK, thanks. That's MUCH better running anyway. If your still on the east coast I'll have to look for you the first week of May when I do my orientation. It seems like you get to Pittston on Thursdays when things go they way they're supposed to.

    Safe travels John.

    Well I'm getting unloaded here in Allentown. Louie called earlier and said I didn't have to come to the yard. He sent me my load info over the computer. I have a drop and hook in McElhattan that's ready now for a Tuesday delivery in Orlando. I'll need to scan my bills in later so I can get paid next week. I'll be home around midnight tomorrow night and enjoy Easter with the family. Louie asked if I would be able to run out west next week and of course I said yes. One other thing, Calex finally went green and hired a company to do our payroll and put our pay voucher online for us. The only good thing about it is we can access it before we get paid to make sure there's no mistakes. As far as going green the only thing I see this does is make me print my paystub on paper in Florida instead of it being printed in PA.
