yup, ended up having a nice dinner and watched a movie, then got a run 300miles empty and 513 loaded, from wilson, nc to paris, ky. So about to shutdown for the day

 

Finally getting unloaded here in Auburn WA. USX dipatched us at 1800 last night but this place was closed then. The BOL said 0300. I went in at midnight and the guy said between 7-8 am. Went back in at 7 and was told they were at lunch. Hope I never have to come to this receiver again.

 

you guys are just working to hard....lol,
we avg running only 4-5 days a week....

we've had our truck 1 year (will be in 3 days) and we've only put 128k on her BUT we got a deal we start later this week (at home right now) running 6,000 a week for the next 2 months that is if usx company drivers don't f- it up like they did last year with toyota

 

Yep. I'm not the blonde chick. You here, too?

 

Day on of orientation in Colton,CA done.

 

Flood, sounds like a good deal,, maybe one day I will have put in enough time that I can't kick back..lol

Well we got our load going to SC. I'm hoping they can move the appt up or we will be sitting a couple days. Nobody is going to want to repower a load that is two days early.

I woke up for my shift and sat up front. Asked Goofy (the co-driver) if he had gone over any scales. He said he had and we were legal. He said we were at 26,000 on the drives and 29,000 on the tandems. Impossible since we were a little over 78,000 gross according to the scale at the shipper. I should have used that scale to figure out all the axles but I didn't think of it at the time.

Anyways I get to the scale in Idaho that shows the readout. The tandems are over by 1000, which is OK in Idaho (up to 36000), but not many other states. I pulled into the next rest area and slid the tandems back. NOW we are legal.
