Furniture Row Express

Yeah Watermelons

 

Proper plan enough product.

Efon, i know what you mean. driving at night is a brutal recovery it takes 24 hours just to drive 10 hours. I'm still recoovering from driving those nights.
has anyone got the detention pay at pilgrim in Chattanooga load was supposed to be ready at 930 last night and I'm still here its 1230 now. The load will be late to mount pleasant texas also.

I don't understand how we continuously wait on loads. the company is losing money too. I see that the only after 2 months being here that you could have 2 extra loads a month if you were waiting for loads. Its not FROW, its our customers failing to plan enough product. We have another furniture row load ready but no driver to take it. I'm sitting around waiting.

looking forward to the time off .

 

now you know why I left the reefer business. To much wasting of my time!

 

Got my day of rest today after a furniture run from New Albany to Davenport. Picking up tomorrow in Waterloo headed to Denver. I got home time for next Saturday for the start of college football season. So hoping a run out and back.

 

Got a GREAT LOAD Holcomb to La Porte delivers Monday.
hmmmm. Can't run all those miles gonna need until Wed.

 

Nevermind, headed to Omaha going to Fort Worth.

 

Have my official first breakdown today. The spring on the Trailer in front of tandems failed and dropped them down causing breach and cuts to electrical too. This trailer i picked up in De Queen did not have any load locks so they pulled my load locks i left in other trailer.
Is it just me or have anyone else been experiencing some real slower, sp needs, cant finish high school type receivers, security and or shippers. Its not rocket science. A little or alot of attention to detail is required, maybe welfare is better for you.
I have seen legitimate special needs employees working at a Publix grocery store who could do a better job. I'm just saying.....walking around with a cigarette in your mouth while checking people in or taking a break after 2 hours, or failure to notify driver unloaded, the list goes on. Is it in the dust, water, or these small towns? This type i bet has asphalt stains on bottom of feet, and drinks mountain dew by gallon.

 

The junk trailers they are pulling around have got to be costing them more in maintainance and pissed off customers than it would to buy new ones.They lost a load of chicken in Utah 2 weeks ago because the trailer it was put on was supposedly put OOS 3 weeks ago and it ended back up at Pilgrims in Canton and got loaded. #2 They need to build a shop in Aurora, they had probally 20-30 OOS trailers sitting in New Albany when I quit, and a lot of them are newer trailers. They can not keep up in New Albany.I still think FRE is a decent comany for anyone that lives in CO. or Tx., and they like sitting at meat plants and grocery wharehouses for hours on end, it just didn't work for me.BTW things going great at my new gig, another 3000 mile week.
