Roehl Driver Check In

Remington, IN with another paper load. Talked to a Roehl driver today at the pickup in Middletown, OH. Seemed like a cool cat. On my way to Carol Stream, IL in the morning, the joys of Chitown

 

If he would have know last night how today was going to go, he would have traded you in a heartbeat...but you really would have been late getting back to Florida.

He loaded in Eau Clarie at Midwest Man/Menards Dist. He checked in at 11:15a and checked out at 7:30p. His 1 stop load turned into a 2 stop after he got there, and they wanted the 1st stop off today as it was only going to the other side of WI (can't remember where right now). He'll kick both off tomorrow morning.

 

Ouch!! thats one hell of a load time.....sounds like dollar general in Jonesville SC took 6 hours just to start unloading me...2 hours waiting just to back into a dock...I feel his pain...and ya I would have been late getting to florida...I think I might just make it before opening formation on saturday...hopefully have time to shave or I will ahve to explain the beard LOL...(I'll just say I am getting ready to play santa on Christmas for my kids LOL..)

 

Menards Distribution..... NUFF said I've had my own 6 hour nightmare there.

 

At Flying J of I-75, exit 320 in Georgia. Who cares what town... I'm tired.

 

In the walmart distribution center in Tomah, WI. Ready to head to marshfield in the morning then rolling to Gary for the weekend I suppose.

 

Griffin GA...then going to ATL to load then down to florida...don't know if I am relaying or not...if not this loads going to be late since opening formation is at 0750 tomorrow morning and the load delivers in alachua at 1100 2morrow...hmmmm

 

Ft worth.....really tight spot here picking up at a&r transport...relay to e stl tomorrow afternoon, maybe tomorrow nite as slow as these folks are been in door 2hrs already with no movement

 

How does Roehl do setting up home time and are they good at getting u home on that day? Looking to go national in Jan.

 

meh I have always got home when needed...but sometimes (like now) I won't roll into town the day or night before...sometimes I roll in in the morning...I don't really have problems getting to Tomah...but Jax Florida...yeah my FM scheduals me to be there 3 days before I have to be because the freight to florida sucks...just like coming out....Yeah I don't think I am going to be on time for formation tomorrow...I already have the excuse ready (hows this...I blew a steer tire in Nashville and had to get it replaced and ran out of hours)...works for me...I am pretty sure i am gonna get lectured about time managment...but these knuckleheads can kiss it...they don't know this business..
