Roehl Driver Check In

that wabash mineral wool is obviously good for something

 

lol you're right, that appears to be the "soil" for it.

 

Oh so I found out today that after 30 days I get to go through 4 days of Trainer Foundations... again. Oh well, maybe it will be a good refresher.

 

Nice rig! Does it smell new? I guess that trailer been sitting awhile eh?

 

Apparently I skirted word filter.

Caption "HAY LOAD"


Ok. Let me sum this up then.. Lease truck ready tomorrow. Paperwork can't be filled out until Monday.

Good morning bad afternoon / night.

Preplan to Warren MN to pick up hay.

30,520 mt weight.

They loaded me up and told me no tarp despite what Roehl said. Ok cool with me.

Ran down to exit 138 on I-29 Flying J to scale out.

81,120 loaded weight.

No good. Load delivers tomorrow at 13:30. So called farmer randy back to tell him. He said come back for 2 bales to be taken off, might be a wait though. No go since I'm running low on hours will have to do early morning. His guys don't come in until 07:30. Crap.

Called night dispatch let them know. Oh window until 1500.. Can I make it?!? No. 513+ miles at 55 is over 9 hours.

So now I will find out if I can deliver on Saturday in WI at a dairy farm..

Good lord! All I want to do is see Betsy #2.

Oh and I hate you treeforkager. When I get in my new truck my hate will no longer be there for you. Until then, watch out bub.

 

Yeah still has new truck smell to it. Which I actually don't like even in new cars, but its better than smokey truck smell, (which it does have a mild case of as well).

 

If its any consolation I'm envious of your new truck too.

 

I can relate. I feel the same way when I come back to Roehl. (Yes, I know, I've had the feeling 3 times. LOL) Roehl is like an old worn out sweatshirt for me. It might not be perfect, but it fits nice and feels good.

 

You know I'm just giving you a hard time Treefork!!

 

You've got me beat by one, lol. This is only my 2nd time coming back.
