I just thought maybe it would give you something to do for a few hours tomorrow if you wanted to get out of the room and do some exploring.
Where are you

A MOST curious Friday...
7 delivery tickets. Started out dispatched to take 8594# and 263# to Air France. I did not know it at the time but the 263 was Hazmat. So anyhow they cancelled the 263 and I got a 137# to British Air to replace it. Had a Qatar at 149# to get me up to lunch time.
Drove into SDV a smidgen after 1pm. First box hit trailer 2:45. Last box (the 263# Hazmat) hit the trailer at 3:47 (had a 3pm cutoff - but I know the guys at Air France and knew I could get it off). That along with 502# to British, 745# and 4218# to Air France.
As I was waiting to get the paperwork done at British Air dispatch called. Said he had a pretty good one for tomorrow. I didn't really want it but asked what it was. 11am pickup at SDV going to Cargolux. 3500# No Hazmat. I declined as best I could and did some checking of my records. Would have payed $55 on the low side and perhaps $60. I would use $20-$30 in diesel and it would have wasted the fat part of the day. I'm VERY glad he found someone else to do it!
Was MOST surprised when I did not get sent back to SDV after dropping British Air.
Rolled in 19:35. Sammich, chips, Two and a Half Men and here I are. -

Staunton, VA at the Marathon. Nice to be away from the idling masses at the pee-lot.

I thought I would have to check with Walmart tomorrow and ask for store loads cause my dsp was swamped with work and wasn't going to be able to find me a load till Monday...
But no, no, no... At the last minute this afternoon he got me a CH Robinson load, had to leave in a flash to get an mpt trailer at Walmart and rush to shipper only 15 mins from there. With an elog and my 14 ending quickly, I had to pressure broker and shipper to hurry up since shipper had to close in the evening and wouldn't open on Sat. With 27 mins left, I rushed to nearest truck stop, only 5 mins away and here I am.
