    Idle. Your. Truck. Until. They. Install. Your. APU.

    Alternatively, you could continue to kill the batteries and make them pay for a daily road service call to get you started. That, coupled with missed appointments should be enough to send them the message.

    I can't believe you haven't parked their truck and gone home yet.

    Getting ready to head out to the yard. First load today will be from Hartford (a local quarry) to Hutchinson. I'll bet it will be more screenings, something the plant in Hutchinson does not need. They have a huge mountain already, with all the other materials it's hard to find a place to dump. As it is now, you can barely drive between the piles to get to where we dump. From there who knows, maybe another Buildex run to NE???

    Suppose to be another cold day today, then gradually warm through the week again.

    It can't be as brutal as local where you are backing up over and over and navigating the city and area of Charlotte. I handled that ok. Once I figured out how to avoid curbs.

    Oh what a horrible morning--my customer in da Bronx called last nite :biggrin_25526:--sold this load to a guy in s jerzy--asked ifn I minded dropping there instead--told him there is gonna b a drop fee:D--and the rate is still the same--He told me he oughta cut the rate since he is Cuttin-almost 100 miles off the load &all the Xtra tolls --Told him--I oughta charge u Xtra for having to open my office on a Holiday and talk to him! When the laughing subsided--we exchanged holiday wishes and hung up--Had to call him back because never did get the info on who he sold it to so i knew where to go:D
