Conway Truckload Drivers what is your 20?

Little recap in my last three weeks out

9810 loaded miles / 13 loads
718 dead head miles / 9X

10,528 paid miles = 3509 week (without a reset)

my big mistake prob was not waiting til after midnight in Laredo to be dispatched causing an extra 1758 mi load (at 4pm) to go on the week with 3200 already , Uncle Sam took $380 out of my $1945 check

 

Nice haul Paul.

 

I was lucky a few times with early del/ early pick up ... And a KC relay that went well in my fav

thanks to Josh ...my he rest in regional peace!

 

What do you think bout getting out of FL on the weekend

debating coming back on Fri or Sat ? Had any luck? I know when we teamed sometimes get a long dead head but I don't see that happening while solo...hate to come back to pull a load to JAX and then just sit there til Monday!!

 

One word Nestle.

 

Nestle
Got to watch an entire Phillies game
Then an entire dodger game

Did ya eh?

Haven't bought any of their products since ;D

 

I've never pulled anything out of florida on the weekend.sat or sun that is.

 

Yeah, when I took home time in June, I boarded at 7:30 Saturday and kept getting load assignments and unassignments until they finally gave me one that picked up on Monday morning. By that time, I had no where to go stay, and no one to come pick me up. So I sat where I parked the truck 48 hours until it was time to pick the load up...

 

Another Walmart .... More detention pay

trailer had the green light 45 min ago ...no paper work ready?

So $12 ....waiting for more ...no pre-plan , told then get me to JAX if they can't get me home

 

Only see that when a student is in the log too. Its some new rule, or old rule that they finally programmed in, where 2nd driver must be in sleeper or on duty. It covers teams and finishers. I had a violation every day for a week or so until I got used to it.

Still not sure I understand it, but, if my student is not driving, he is in sleeper, and if I am not driving, I am on duty, not driving.
