    Well been home all day thanks to coca cola. Unloaded late last night and was stuck with 29 bad cases that had water damage. Showing signs that they have had it longer then two days do coca ca in Dallas must of loaded it that way. Took all day for the office to get things work out with them. Now I have to throw it all away. My next load was ready for pick up this morning do will be getting it tomorrow afternoon. Will have to go from Loveland to Denver to the FRE terminal to throw the bad cases out. Then back up to Greeley to pick up to head to la Porte tx. DM said she will get me paid for the time lost and traveled getting all this taken care of so all ended well. Even got another day with the family. Just upset at coca cola for loading bad product. Be careful with the loads you get at coca cola in Dallas tx. Could cost you a day. Well hope all is well with everyone.

    Daymn that sucks. Thought JBS had a good maintance program going or was that when they had the man power to keep up with it? Well I hope your next truck is a temp one as you move to another company.

    Bad weekend just turned into a good weekend....Was sitting in Dumas,Tx. waiting on JBS, then the phone rings,they want me to swap out with a fellow driver, go to Denver, then back to Holcomb then down to Laredo for Tues. Good deal, then when I hang up the phone rings its JBS calling to say my original load is ready... a day early...that never happens..now the other driver is picking it up LOL. Gotta say FRE has stepped up and corrected some issues I had..Good operations good people to work for.
