    I am still sitting waiting on a decision from tyson.....jesus as much sitting as I have done with this load I could have been at home accomplishing the same #### thing....UGGGGGG

    Hopefully i can get to sheldon too...I have some personal things to take care of....(I am starting the process to get out of a horrible relationship...nuff said) and I am looking at maybe moving back to where I can call home and all my family pretty much resides or has roots....(sibley, sheldon, worthington...etc)....
    I wonder how much it would cost me to book Van Wyk to go to Jacksonville with a dry van so I can get my car and my ####??? LOL

    OH it will....part of my rant too was because I am exhausted after the load from hell....I think I made more in detention than the actual load would have paid me...LOL.......but I am happy the Albatross is no longer around my neck.....
    as far as personal wise..I just need to go back to where the corn grows tall.....and the 500k vehicals that people have are only out for about a month every year...and are either red, yellow or green...LOL(yes I grew up in farmland....family was deeply divded..one side had green tractors...while the other had only Red......)..

    So, when somebody writes on your paperwork "door 7-9", how do you read that? 'Cause I sure read it "seven through nine". AKA 7, 8, or 9. So I took 8. Dude opens up the overhead door as I'm breaking the seal. Give him my paperwork. "This says 7 or 9," quoth he, "you're in 8." He seemed pretty irritated about it, too. Apparently a dash means 'or' and not 'through' in Chicago now. :banghead:

    Spyder I delivered that load to Manassas a few times. They will load you early if the product is ready. I went there twice. I'm guessing you're at Leprino? They will definitely load you early if they have the product ready, and if not, you will just have to wait until they get it ready. They aren't bad or anything just irritating when you get somewhere and have to sit. I'm also guessing you're going to McLane? I don't mind that run from Waverly to Manassas. I do however, like coming west so far. It's been rather refreshing to get away from the Northeast. Of course you know you can park overnight at McLane, or you can go down the street on Balls Ford Road to the HH Gregg, and there are some shops there, and some food places, then you don't have to burn any driving time to go back to McLane. Hope this helps. :) Hope everyone is having a great Tuesday
