Where, OH, Where........

Oh what was this thread about? Home, that's where I'm at. Home sweet home.

 

Yeah, your FM is feeding you a load of B.S. Was in Denton again the other day and there's about 6 or 7 tractors STILL just sitting waiting for drivers. My APU has gone out again for the umpteenth time. Called them when I was in Laredo and literally got told "Sorry, nothing we can do" my response was "Ok, Where do you want your truck?" I'm at home now, and it's still out. We'll see if it gets fixed (but I doubt it). Breakdown actually called and asked me to take it to the shop while I'm on home time...umm no. Home time is time with my kids, sorry. Fixed it myself last time, will prolly do it again this time while I'm at home this weekend.

 

Sitting at walmart dc in va. Wrong drop numbers. Waiting on didpatch to find the correct ones so I can drop and leave. Got a live load in hopewell, va.

 

Maybe you'll have better luck loading in hopewell today since it's the weekend. That place is usually overran with truck waiting for a dock. They also bring out the magnifying glass to inspect the trailers. Hopefully you dont sit there a half day waiting for a dock and then get your trailer rejected.

 

They way today os.going ill be rejected. I'm.going to look at all the trailers good befor I pick one at walmart. Besides a good sweeping and no holes what else they looking at? What am I getting there?

 

Its roll stock (paper). They check underneath the trailer with a mirror for bent or damaged crossmebers and they also do a walk around check for damage.

 

So they are just more thurough structurally than most of the others? Got it. Make sure no leaks and swept well and no damage.

The direction to the place suck. Turn on industrial and drive thru honeywell. Lol I hope the signs are obvious.

 

You should see a 'Smurfit Stone sign on Randolph telling you to where to turn and the road dead ends at the mill. Its easy to get to but keep in mind that it might actually be Temple Inland now instead of Smurfit Stone.

 

Appreciate the info. Load info still says smurfit. But we all know how that is...

 

RockTenn now.

Trl rejected. Only waited twenty minutes for that. Seems a small crack in the floor was not to his liking. It was right next to a repaired section which is why he probably saw it. I missed it. It was not all the wsy thru. We looked under the trl and it was not cracked there. Just a surface crack. More lije spkintering but he said no as he didn't want the floor to fall thru sending the roll into my cab and killing me. His words not mine lol.

Send a msg in to dispatch and thry said tell breakdown. Waiting on a call now.
