Conway Truckload Drivers what is your 20?

When I was assigned the load last Thursday, I told local dispatch in Joplin I could be here by Monday 0800, but Tom said Wednesday am was the earliest. I didn't ask about and I doubt he considered dropping it, there were 25 on the board at the time so I'm certain he had more pressing issues than coordinating a sister-agency relay.

Aside from my productivity hit, the only real downside was missing the only opening my doctor had this week for my annual weight loss lecture (I'll happily push that back 3 months). The upside was I killed time by driving 55 for those 1800 miles -- that 9.2mpg should help offset the idling I'll be doing whenever summer decides to hit.

 

You gotta ask / tell you FM ....local would even care to ask
i ask stupid shoot of my FM all the time lol ....how many days u been highlighted ?

 

Thanks, I'll remember that. Today is day 10 I think. Provided I'm unloaded in a reasonable time frame, I expect to be home tomorrow afternoon.

 

hey Roadrealtor , when you were off on your medical leave did you turn your truck in ???? Im gonna b off awhile and was curious !!

 

I think RR had to turn a couple in ...9 days is policy ...you might stretch that to 14 but I doubt any longer

 

In Lancaster ...about to bobtail to get my Taco Cabana on!!

 

My husband went on medical leave and had to turn his truck in, we were in Georgia at the time and had to have the in-laws come and pick us up, it may depend on how long you'll be off, my husband was off for 2 mths

 

Stopped into Joplin to get some trailer repairs done. Took 3 hours, Contemplating just doing a 10 then driving 625 to consignee.

 

Well all wish me the best. Due to the time it is going to take the parts (or KW claims it is going to take to get the parts) JopMo has decided to tow me from Ft. Worth to the home terminal in Joplin. I won't be getting there in time today to have my meeting with safety, so that will be in the morning. This would have been one of those ideal times for an in cab camera to prove an unsafe lane change.

 

You can get a b/w dash cam from loves for $99.00. Not sure how long it records but as soon as an accident happens stop it and you would have on video what happened and can possibly take the at fault from the driver of the truck to the other person involved.
