    this is kinda how I reacted. But here's what I did do, before he left I told him that before he leaves I want to take an inventory, of my belongings. iPhone, check, satellite radio, check, RM TND510, check, change cup full of change, check, food in fridge, check. Let me tell you, I was so shocked by this that I just let it go.

    Wow!!! That takes a lot of nerve to get in someone's "HOME" and think that's okay to do. You handled it better than I would have. I may have tried to pull him straight thru the door! What an invasion of your privacy. Let's just thank God it wasn't me. I try to be as fair as possible with all Drivers. That's really crossing the line.
     
    JohnBoy, Jrdude5 and YardDart Thank this.

    Dang JohnBoy you need to go back home and take a break. It seems that you are not having good luck on this trip. Hope it goes better for you.

    Glad to see the forum back up and running, thanks guys for stepping up and taking care of this.

    I finally got finished in Denver at 12:30 Monday. I was actually done at 11am but had to wait an hour and a half for my paperwork. While waiting I got my reload. I had to deadhead 705 miles up to Twin Falls Idaho to pick up a load of French Fries on Tuesday morning. I left Denver and kept the left door closed and got to the shipper at 2am. I had a noon appointment so I took my full 10 hour break there. I was done loading at 1:30, scaled out and left out for Riverside Ca. The load paid me on 860 miles to Riverside, which was back down through SLC and down through Vegas. Instead I went due south on 93 to Vegas. It was a great ride, speed limit of 65 & 70 the whole way, plus it was 130 miles shorter. So instead driving the 860 miles I drove the 730 but got paid on the 860. I unload in Riverside at 7am Thursday. I am quite sure I'll be doing a drop and hook at our Colton yard for a produce load right back to Charlottesville Va. I will have 5 hours left on my 70 after today and will be running off my recap now. I left the house last Wednesday morning, after getting empty up until I get empty tomorrow, I will have been paid on 3925 miles. Right now I'm sitting in Vegas waiting for my break to be up. I'm stopping in Barstow to get my wheels polished, then go down to Ontario and hang out until the morning. It's only 18 miles to my drop from there.
