Central Refrigerated Truck Stop II

Yeah that's the one out of Phoenix. I just could not remember what it was. They post on the qc every few months or so.

 

Pit seems to be a pretty good gig. The few loads I pulled for them were really light and over 1200 miles.

 

Pit? I haven't heard of them. Coors is good too. Not sure how they are about going to CA. But I have a friend on it and says he's getting 3300+/week every week. But they are heavy loads

 

just hide a key in the engine compartment pretend you are pretripping your truck and grab it.

 

So as I sit on a 10hr DDT (second in 4 days, making 35hrs spent on DDT), I get my next runs. I'm delivering this Wednesday morning at 0500, load after that doesn't pick up till midnight... More wasted time and more night driving. But better yet. It goes to Kansas where they have me picking up a frigging dodge city meat run!! Won't be back in Fontana till Monday, hometime starting on Saturday is blown. Since my GF works full days Wed, Thr, and Fri, I tell-- TELL my DM I am going to take 6 days from Tuesday to Sunday (back Monday) to spend time with family and unfrazzle myself from te three meat loads I had within a weeks time. I'm going to have some lousy pay checks but Luckly may has 5 weeks in it so it'll average out to about 4 decent paychecks...

my DM agreed to the 6 days. 'I can work with that' he said.

 

Ha! Seeing Passion4Polishing actually doing a pretrip would cause all kinds of suspicion!!

 

I've been on the look out for a used truck with some bonuses to lease. In the mean time I took a Regional position which has been pretty different so far. I haven't yet received my first check from it, but in estimation I think it will be alright. Over the weekend I started shuttling loads from Americold in Plover, WI to Americold in Tomah, WI which is about 70 miles. Load times were extremely long since all were work ins, but I'm a team player and I'm getting .41 cpm which is a decent increase from .28 cpm. However, my new DM took notice of my situation and volunteered PO money on the loads. He's also been extremely communicative and attentive in general. If he keeps impressing me like this and the money is in the ball park I may stay in this position for quite a while. Not that I've given up on leasing, but its all about the money and the home time. Obviously home time gets a leg up in Regional. In fact when I first joined up, my DM sent me by the house for a couple of days for unscheduled home time, just because. Did I say that I like this guy? His name is Cody by the way.

 

LOL. The P was an accident. It was supposed to be "it". Speaking of cafe valley. Sorry. I'm actually on the coors fleet. We go into Cali some but I don't know how much I've only been once in 3 years on coors and it was to Bishop.

 

Nothing starts a night run off right like finding out the $500 you put in the tank two days ago did not come with a shower!

 

if it was with pilot or the J call them. They'll make it right.
