My Experiance with Watkins Shepard!

I Fueled this morning then did both of my stops for the day by 9:30am....I did my pre-trip at 8:15am lol

anyway so then I drove 8.75 hours to the Flying J in San Antonio, TX. I have 5 stops to do tormorrow then drive 4 hours to Houston, TX and sit at another truck stop lol.


And FIRST THING this morning I send dispatch a QC letting her know when i need to be home, i got "10-4!" Thats exactly what i wanted to see! Not I'll see what i can do....


I can't wait almost there!

well today started out great, then went to sheet. I'm going to leave it at that. And this time it was 100% not my fault! it was 50/50 The guys who loaded my truck halfazzing and 1 customer. I have been to this customer before They are the ones who took 6 hours to do my drop n hook last time i was in TX.

But after all of it, i was still able to get what needed to be done, done. Now i have 2 stops in the morning and then I should be loading and heading home! yay

got my last 2 stops off, and of course i had an extra 100lbs piece of furniture that barly fit in my truck, put it this way it takes up all of the room from the shifter to the bed and from seat to seat, i have to climb OVER it to get into the sleeper! Why is it so hard to load a truck?

anyway then I got another load, sealed load (which is why its in the truck not in the trailer) and its going to GA, not NC. Which is fine because we have a ton of freight going to NC and I deliver in GA just north of Atlanta on Friday at noon, so plenty of time to get back to conover, right?

well we'll see, what happens either way i WILL be there



So anyway so now i'm at the loves in Vinton, LA yep I knocked it off my list states FINALLY!


and I'll head to the ATL area tomorrow.

I agree but there isnt much you can do when i shipper says the trailer must be MT and when the Receiver wants to break the seal....lol

Its a huge PIA but whatever im going home i dont care lol

I'm not sure how im going to get it out of my truck though.....
