Central Refrigerated Truck Stop II

If you're careful bob tailing its easy to get 12-13mpg. So a little over 2 gallons for a crapshoot. I'm ballin, I can afford it. Lol. Seriously, it's not great to spend money for no reason but it's alright if you don't do it all the time. Now I wish I was less keyed up so I could actually sleep.

 

Btw wish I would have thought to ask in here before I ran off. I just couldn't believe dispatch said sorry just wait until morning. Shoulda known to check TTR for those closer location codes.

 

try gsflei in lemont they usually have some or try uscwil they usually have 1 but they open tomorrow at 7am

 

I've got a question for some of you guys.. I was just going over centrals CSA scores and what violations caused these points. My question is , how the hell do you get a "form and manner" violation when we run elogs? Also, what is the on board recorder info not available violations? Guys our score as a company has went to crap the last couple of months. LoL must be why we get all those stupid messages.

 

I only know this because I just attended a safety meeting. The "form and manner" violation mainly has to do with the load tab in the HOS menu not being filled out. You are supposed to have that filled out for every load you are on. If they pull the service records during an inspection and that tab is not filled out you get the good ol' "form and manner" points.

Form and manner is not putting your load info in the load tab under "hours of service." The info not available is probably those crazy moments when your QC decides to restart or go to sleep and you're in the middle of a major city during rush hour and you drive without it for an hour or so. Lol, not that I'd ever do that!! but I can imagine it happening. I ran my clock out all weekend and now I'm 34ing it up in awesome Dunn, NC. Wooh, party!!

 

jinx you owe me a coke.

 

So that's why we keep getting pulled in to all these scales. Tighten up, folks!

 

Yeah, I was trying to decipher a load plan yesterday while driving. You have to almost be a master code breaker to understand what she's saying, "Montana S" means "MTs!" And I got 9 messages while trying to listen to 2 loads. Never quite figured out the time. Luckily going through the next two scales I was able to read them and Mac11. My prepass died shortly after so I get to hit every scale from here to Conley when I take off tomorrow.

 

Oh, oops, well Ive probably contributed to this then. I always forget to change it. Its such a pain with so many loads per week. I even taped a reminder on my qualcomm, and I still forget. I guess Ill keep up on it.
