    tyson, jbs, cargill, etc they all have their good days & bad days on loading. 1 thing i have noticed from ANY meat plant is; if the customer is what they call a PLATINUM CUSTOMER they will load that load ahead of others, then load accordingly as product is available; to me, they take way toooo #### many coffee breaks

    Well found out today that the electric APU only keeps the sleeper 20 deg cooler then out side are. WOW 101 out side. Not good if you need to sleep during the day. Guess Mark will not be happy as I found out how to idle my truck past the 5 min mark.

    Apu broke a belt, was fixed today the CT power here in pheonix drags feet. Stood there 20 mins and had to ask where or who do i see about service standing in front of service desk. Too busy doing paperwork instead of handling customers.
