    Saw your truck at the Flying J in Wichita Falls this evening. I stopped in to use the restroom and grab a quick bite. Sometimes I wonder why I even bother trying to get in there.

    Was going to Fuel and Park, lines were backed up so I just parked. I did take a shower I think I had to wait like an hour.

    Didn't drive as far as I wanted to today.
    My Back has really been bothering me. Verizon has 4g here also. Just another reason to stop.

    Here in Arcadia, WI picking up at Ashly furniture. It is a drop and hook. Not sure if that was already posted here. They have a truck stop 2 miles away from the shipper but only holds 5 to 7 trucks so get their early. If not just stop before heading in. Check in 2 hours early and they are still loading trl. Pick up time is 1000 and was told it might not be ready until then so I guess showing up early isn't good. Unless you get here the night before and drop your trl then find a place for the bobtail. Don't follow your gps into the plant either. The address is on the other dude where you have to go. To get in from Main Street take J street south, 5 blocks then turn right on furniture way, 2nd left is row 9 drop trl their. Then pull down to door 467, you will see a door for drivers then off to the left inside check in.

    Well still here at Ashley furniture on a drop and hook. A little over 3 hours late on loading it. 1 1/2 before pick up time they where 18% loaded. Now they are 91% loaded. So 5 hours just to load 73% of the load. This place is getting ready to fall on my list with Keith grocery. That's the list I don't pick up loads for. Don't care if I need the miles or not I just don't pull them.

    Well. Almost got to speek to Don today. I called his office # and didn't leave a message. And then called his cell. While doing that he called me and I didn't kno it. He said he saw a missed call and returning it. Called back 2-3 times and left message and nothing yet. Just wish someone will let me kno yes or no. Really want to work here but can't wait forever. As long as I kno an answer I don't mind waiting.

    Don is a really cool guy until you NEED to get ahold of him. J/k sort of.
    He's really hard to get ahold of.
    I waited to quit Swift until I knew for sure also.

    I'm not working right now. But don't wanna go somewhere else and then the next day or week the place I really wanted to go calls. Had that happen b4. Went to work for this one company and I hadn't been gone on my first load an hour and the company I really wanted called lol. That's usually my luck. Maybe he'll call or I can get ahold to him soon. Thx

    AB in Fort Collins is a hit or miss place. You can get their early and load will be ready and then it can be from what I have heard 5 days late. Never know it might be ready tonight....lol. I know this doesn't realy help but that is what I know of the place. Do you know if it is going to snow a lot? Going to try and be their tomorrow to drop off early.

    Ya Don can be hard to get ahold of. He has a lot on his plate their. Just keep calling until you get him on the phone.
     
    Smokey5366 Thanks this.
