    Change of plans. I picked my load up going to Indy, but only got as far as Richmond, IN. I got a call from my dm. They have a hot load that needed to be in Jersey First thing in the morning. So I repower the load, get to Jersey, drop it off, and then reload going to OKC for Monday morning. Then I load in Enid heading to Anaheim, CA for Thursday. So instead of 4610 miles in 10 days, I'm getting 5700 in 12. Either way...plenty of miles!

    Hey, I am not sure if I missed it but are you a company or a lease op? I am looking at going over in the lease part of the company. I have only talked to recruiter but seemed really cool and laid back. Thanks for your post.
     
    Kry0n Thanks this.

    I'm a company driver. I've been quite busy this past month. Since relaying that load to Jersey, I went Jersey-OKC-Portland-OKC-Orlando-home. Just shy of 13,000 miles for the month, and plenty ready for a break. I got a new (to me) truck too...a '13 Cascadia. So far so good!

    Until next time!!

    Kind of a slow week for me since I had to go to the yard to get some apu work done on the truck...still should be close to 3000 miles by the time it's all said and done. I'm in Cincinatti right now headed to Sanger, TX...then it's back home by Sunday as I have jury duty starting on Monday...ugh.

    What do they start exp reefer drivers at? What speed are you governed at? How are the e-logs working for you? Can you drive "off-duty"? Thx

    $.36/mi....66mph, they are fine as long as you know how to manipulate them, and yes we have off duty driving.

    flightwatch, are you still at WFE? If so how are things going? Thinking about applying with them, just curious if they're still treating you good.
