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

Well looks like a pitstop through Denton tomorrow (oh goody) to get the APU fixed.....again...do wish USA would fix their equipment and quit sending me to Denton for a patch job.

 

I fixed the light this morning. Found a concrete wall tall enough I could reach the light. Yes I called it all in. I wasn't worried about the light its self. Just that breakdown telling someone to roll with it and get it fixed later. Thats not right. Most cops.may let it slide but it is still a violation and the one mad cop will write it up. A new driver has no idea how to handle that stuff. Most vets don't either lol. Other than pay the ticket and move on.

And I've never knowingly left faulty trailers for the next guy. I always try to get them fixed. And safety and my fm were notified of the whole situation. Needless to say nome were happy.

 

getting load to Laredo relayed in Emerson Ga,deliver to Spartanburg Sc in the morning,then pu in Catawaba Sc to Nashville Tn,then Hopkinsville Ky to Lewisville Tx,then home

 

Dodged the bullet and made it all the way to FL without getting the load hijacked. Delivers in the morning provided that I'm able to get out of the FJ at 3:00 am.

 

Got my truck serviced and now I actually have a jake brake agian! Heading to Salisbury, nc to deliver tomorrow then home

 

Guess who os finally getting on the fuel solution list? They are updating peoplenet as I type this. Im on it starting next load. Lol what's funny is I can't log off the drive line while they are updating the system. Whos bright idea was it to update the peoplenet system at 1630 to 1730? So now I have to get with safety dept to fix my logs tomorrow. Oh well.... now how do I cheat the fuel solutions again lol?

 

Think I saw you today at the Loves, wish I had known it then I would have bought you a coffee or soda.

 

I've come to the conclusion that yes, its easy to just go and be non-compliant. But, its easier to just call them (daytime only) and explain why the FS doesn't make sense and they will change it to something that will accommodate you better and you won't have to put up with all the non-compliance messages.

 

What's the matter? Tired of wearing out shoes by dragging your feet to stop? Fred Flintstone never complained..lol

 

Yea I called.my dm and she said.if I didn't like the solution it gave me because of route or where the stops were to just call her and tell her what I wanted and she'd fix it. I'm not worried about it. Just another thing to.learn to deal with.
