Furniture Row Express

Well I guess I know what I will be doing on my home time.

 

Glad to see hard work pays off around here........NOT

Busted my butt today to get my load delivered on time. So i could get on to the next load. but nada #### thing got left sitting in the truck stop again second load to Moorhead MN and the second time left sitting for the night again.

Beginning to think i can do a better job of load planning around here.

 

I just sent Scott an email asking him to confirm or deny this rumor. I will let you know what he replies.

 

I'm sitting at the TA in Cheyenne. I told the girl at the counter she might have to call in for authorization. She said it wasn't on her screen that she had to. Mark said something this morning about them turning off the $1000 no authorization for repairs. I didn't know it was in effect this morning. Maybe it has been changed back? I'm getting a tire replaced, air line fixed and a spring on the air hoses replaced.

I'm really hoping we are not going the way of doing things on the cheap side again. If the account does go away, more and more trailers are going to be dropped like the ones Daniel and I are dealing with. It will come back to bite them in the rear. If we get inspected and more things are found wrong, there goes our safety rating, prepass and YOUR PERSONAL CSA score.

 

We are all good here I was in Elk City unloading while mama and the daughter, an grandkids rode it out in the stormcellar came within 5 miles of my place. Now I'm in Terrell Texas for a drop in Longview in the morning, then back to chickasha ok to grab another. No mile shortages here. But lots of repairs

 

If they did drop the account, then I would not hook to any dropped trail anywhere without it being 100% ready to roll an make them send a repay truck out to fix. Don't drag it anywhere lol

 

If they changed the $1000 limit.......maybe they will replace the Night and Weekend Crew with someone who will actually answer the phone...
Or we can just have TA/Petro call Marks Cell.....

 

I know I am not taking a trlr that someone else failed to take care of.i can only imagine trying to get ahold of someone at nite to get something done.TA is our life line.take that away and it will be a real mess just like it was before that was implemented.i just cant figure out what is going on around here anymore.carl is head of maintenance in new Albany and joe is in aroura.i am real confused as to what is going on here.does that mean scott is director in aurora and someone else in new Albany and someone else in Omaha?

 

too many Chiefs not enough Indians?
