10:40 Pm is pushing it especially if your talking CST and not EST. It needs time to clear the complete work flow. I was told it is 11pm, Transflow has nothing to do with being paid. It is all thru workflow.

I talked with my ICA and asked what his cutoff time was. He told me he went to bed at 9pm and if the load was not complete by then it would not pay out that week.
I suggest you ask your ICA what time they stop working on pay Monday. That way you know what loads to count for the week and what not to count. -
Tim, who is your ICA?

BRB contacting Discovery Channel now.
ANYWAY... lol... was glad I got to meet up with you again at the truck stop yesterday and enjoyed swapping stories. After sitting in my truck for 2 days I was going a little stir crazy.
Finally left New Braunfels, TX today and headed down to Del Rio, TX for my pickup. Got there and after some non-Schneider-approved manuring to get my empty in the door after going past it to the drop yard, I grabbed my loaded trailer and headed East. Nice folks at the shipper down there, told them I would be sure to come back. Another IC was there backed up to the door a trailer or two down from me, we talked for a bit and he didn't even have a load booked on the load board yet, he was just sitting at the shipper WAITING for one to come up, refreshing the load board the whole time until one did. LOL.
I called sadwar earlier and after telling him I was planning to stop through the Houston OC, he advised that I go to one of the many truck stops outside of Houston that were listed in his guide that I have already forgotten the name of. But, me being me, just HAD to go to the OC just to see it. Yeah. I should have listened to sadwar. This OC is almost worse than Obetz. Lot wise, it is. Bathroom wise, it is too. I mean WHO THE **** COVERS BATHROOM STALL WALLS WITH CARPET? WHAT KIND OF GERM-INFESTED SCIENCE EXPERIMENT IS THAT?
There was a giant 2 and a half trailer wide hole that took me about 4 tries to get in because there was no room in front of me with all of the ****ing bobtails parked out against the exit road. Then my tractor was hanging out into the road as well. So I rammed my trailer as hard as I could up against the concrete bumpers in the back but I was still nosed out halfway into the road. I considered just backing over the bumper but then saw the rebar sticking out from behind them and figured it wouldn't be a good idea to puncture 4 tires in one go. So then I unlocked my tandems and slid them all the way up which at least got my front tractor tires off the road. CLOSE ENOUGH.
546 miles down, little under 1500 miles to go.moosc, Grijon and stevep1977 Thank this. -

The bulk guys hate van drivers at that Houston yard. Can't say I blame them because it's a big enough clusterfock for just them by theirselves, then add a bunch of van drivers showing up looking for overnight parking on top of the already huge mess they have going on.
