    Four hours and fifty minutes. Can't even make my Friday delivery window now. They haven't found a unit willing to repower it. Probably end up dropping it in Charlotte if they can't reschedule.

    I am parked Bobtail at the Pilot at Port Wentworth, Ga. Starting my reset. Ended up being my most productive 70 so far with Knight. I had 1hr and 16min left on my 70. Racked up 3463 paid miles on 3676 hub miles. My longest run was 850 miles.

    Home for a few days. One of my slowest trips: 3200 miles in 10 days. Could have been quite a bit more, but I took all the time they gave me for deliveries, instead of boogying and dropping at a yard along the way. It seems like it was Major Backup after Major Backup, every day. Attitude in the tubes. Oh well, Mama said there would be days like that, LOL!

    Wasted an entire day because a dispatcher at Indy who shall remain nameless for their own protection pulled some bs info out of their rear end instead of finding out the correct info and passing it along to me. Showed up at the consignee at 0600 only to find that they were closed. Went to the Pilot at 0700 and sat there until the consignee opened at 1400. Get back to the consignee and get told that since my appt was for Monday at 0600 (dispatcher said to get load there by 1200 Sunday and they would take me) I would have to wait until all other trucks with appts ahead of me got unloaded, which is understandable. Finally got unloaded at 2000, was out of hours. Drove back to the Pilot on line 5 and then wound up having to ask for help getting parked (TIGHT). Great freakin day, huh???? I love my job (keep repeating this to myself).:biggrin_25516:

    This is why I do not call the DM I call the customer. Get the info from the horses mouth.
