Central Refrigerated Truck Stop II

CX is standard shorthand for customer; STOCFL is the location code for my drop yard.

 

Ok cool, thanks for the info. Ill just be happy to get out of WVC and get in the fun. I just hope I get a good trainer, and not one thats just in it for the money.

 

Will be at the terminal in WVC this morning in the recovered truck. Would like to meet any one who is there.

I am at the terminal now but don't know how long we are going to be here.

 

CX=customer
STOCFL=code for the Stockton drop yard

 

Is stocfl Stockton? Now I don't know my own yard code. There's definitely an st (swift), and a cfl(central FL). Lol this is proof I've been out too long.

 

We just got to the hotel from the DMV, will be in the cafeteria at around 1230 with a camo central hat on. If anyone wants to join me.

 

I'll be there with a grey shirt that has Mark Twain on the front and a frog on the back.

 

So I got home Friday afternoon, but it was a real doozy to get there.

I had my meat load from Dodge to Auburn WA-- they couldn't get me a drop or early delivery so Monday morning it was. I pulled in to Safeway at 4pm Tuesday to ask about my appointment (apt on QC didn't match time on bills) and I thought I'd be able to stay overnight in their giant empty parking lot. Wrong. Had to go to a truck stop 5 miles away. This ment I'd have to start my clock in the morning. So I left at 545 for my 730 apt hoping to get in early so I could go pick up my ticket home. It was 7 by the time they had a door for me and pushing 10 before they were done. My 01 was 220 miles away and at 1300...

but it couldn't be that easy. I had one box of OSD... The product was fine but the box had broken.. So I called OSD and while waiting for them to figure out what to do with it, my DM told me to head to Kent drop yard, drop the trailer, and grab an empty... This was 45 minutes in the opposite direction... I eventually get to my 01 at 1400-- only 3 hours late after all this-- they inform me I'm a work in and will have to wait-- luckily they have a yard to park in. I only had three hours left on my 14 and after an hour waiting, still needing to be loaded, and being an hour from the nearest rest area (I was in Kennewick WA) I decided I'd just get to sleep and take off after my 10 resets. Got the call to get loaded at 1130, got back over to parking at about 1245 and got a little bit more sleep.

at 0230 Thursday I am ready to go. I have 1120 miles to go and it delivers 0830 Friday... I was already on the horn asking to get the 99 pushed back a few hours. I head through the 97 of Oregon which has some slowing bits beyond just the 55mph speed limit. I get to Willows CA (north of Sacramento) with 10 minutes left on my 11 at 1400. I'd have 512 miles to go when I take off at midnight-- luckily my DM got the apt pushed back two hours. I rolled in to Mira Loma CA at 0930. 1120 miles in 31 hours. Got unloaded, headed over to Fontana, and went home.

Got to race my car for the second time this year too.

 

I might be wrong... It has been known to happen I thought it was STO (Stockton) CFL (Central Freight Lines).
