    Scheduled for orientation with Swift in Ocala on the 24th. I'll be doing Walmart dedicated out of the grocery DC in Arcadia, I'm guessing orientation there will be the week after, since orientation in Ocala ends on a Thursday afternoon.

    BIGBRAH305, you might not have handled it the right way but I'm glad you came on here and spoke up about it. I've had this happen to me in the past on a load going up to Ohio, I was strictly southeast, mainly FL/GA like Link does with you guys, but this was late in the week and I was in Virginia and they tried to stick this load on me, granted I was also home on weekends so I knew this wasn't going to happen, as uncomfortable as it was to do so I told them I wasn't going and where do we go from here? After an hour or so I was scheduled on a load out of NC going back to FL.

    Point is you have to stand your ground at times in this industry, if you're going to tell me I'm southeast and home on weekends you need to hold up your end of the deal. I hope it works out for you wherever you end up going.

    Well. Caught a nasty sunburn this weekend. Hurts to even walk. Can't even lay down. Because of that I'm dragging ###.

    Got to yard about 9. Got the last empty. Hauled ### to lee. Sat at the check in window for over a hour waiting for paperwork. Got hooked to trailer... And would you guess??.... 4 burnt marker lights and a flat. I aired the tire up with my hose and hauled arse down the road. Shut down at the TA in manning SC as it was getting dark. Going to get lights fixed in morning before I head out. Parking was filling up so I grabbed a spot. These trailer problems are getting ridiculous. Josh will be getting a email first thing in morning.

    I was told today that we're treating them like national accounts due to late deliveries of their loads. 90% is due to bad trailers getting dropped their.

    I bobtailed home since ni empties in yard Friday. Went to Kissimmee to get trailer. Going to Lee for pick up. Deliver to Douglas, then preplanned to go back to Lee for del in Lagrange. Slow start which is good. I'm fighting a sudden onset chest cold. I'm trying to prevent it from turning into something worse.
