From Day One - Abilene Motor Express (Richmond, Wytheville, VA)

Back on the yard done for the day, been on the hour clock today bringing back loaded trailers from HP even found a load I wanted to hang on for myself. Clearwater, Fl once reset is complete del on thurs morning.

 

Today was fun. Actually had off for the holiday in trade for this nasty TO. A 3 stopper Chambersburg Weis which was actually a small electrical/plumbing warehouse, then a U-Haul in Flushing and one in Inwood. The Flushing one was real fun to get into. The one in Inwood said the couldn't unload me until the person that comes back does that. Great they wouldn't be back until 7 and I run out of hours then. She said she would try to get it done for me. She was killing me getting the first box out. She wouldn't be able to get the second one out. I asked her if she minded me taking it out. I know, I know. I have been certified on numerous lifts. I got it out and was on my way. Next pickup in Edison, NJ. To get out of. There you have to wind your way through the streets of Brooklyn. 1 1/2 hours later and made it 17 miles. Took me 2 1/2 hours to go the 50 miles.

 

I started the directions thread. You can find it by doing a search for Abilene or the company or here http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...ene-motor-express-directions.html#post3516804

if the company code doesn't find results it's not there.

 

You can either thank or cuss me later buddy.

 

Sitting here on the yard. No loads available. Hopefully tomorrow will bring better news. Although, if I had hours tonite, I could've had a load back to GA. Saturday, grabbed a 2 stop FL load delivering Tues/Wed and headed home for some R&R. Needed it. Stressed out a little. It's all good. Anyway, delivered and went to Homerville GA to pick up to bring back to the yard. Lovely little place, Homerville. LOL

 

Its going good...finish up orientation tomorrow, and fly home tomorrow night.
