Good Night From II

Caught a nice ppl from Henderson, NV to the Target DC in Fontana. Dispatch notes say not to try and deliver the d&h load early, Going to anyway.

 

You do not want to deliver to any Target DC early. That's a guaranteed service failure.

 

I've always wanted to stop and see that, but didn't know if there is truck parking. Is it possible to take a 10 or a 30 there?

I just downloaded the Red Cross tornado app. It has a siren that sounds like a tornado siren. It went off twice last night in northern Kentucky, I pulled over and checked the weather maps and saw thunderstorms close by, but the weather radio and CB chatter confirmed there were no tornados. Gotta learn more about this app and look at the other apps in the thread started yesterday in the Experienced forum.

For sure. They get 9 ways of persnickity if you deliver early.

 

I was told Target fines Swift heavy if delivered early, they are very strict on delivery times and dates and try to keep things tight and organized.

Home for my days off, I was able to get fuel opened at the Loves on the way home and got my platinum status for next month and got dinner for free with the bonus.

 

wells nv. delivered my first stop in sacramento ca the other day. got there about half hourr early and was sent to the other building they use. only thing i had to do was put some product on palletts that was betwwen a few pallets and on the floor(what guy couldnt get). mostly was taken off with forklift. stopped in winnemucca nv for my ten and will stop in rock springs wy for todays 10 break. should be in denver terminal tomorrow afternoon.. deliver the last part at 05/01 0630. weather is just beautiful going down the 80 so far. you all be safe down south

 

Arrived at shipper for my next load only to be told it isn't scheduled for pickup until tomorrow. CSRs have been giving me more than the usual amount of bad information lately.

 

Sitting in OKC terminal on a 34.

 

North Platte, NE at the Love's.
When I left KY with 43.5K in the box I was HOPING for 7.0 mpg. After battling a 30 MPH quartering headwind all day I'm down to 6.0 and STILL have Wyoming to deal with. Oh well!

Deliver Thursday in Salt Lake the who knows. As I expected Command has NOTHING out of SLC.

 

At least you're on the load board. They aren't taking any more new O/Os right now and the waiting list is full. I did have an O/O recruiter tell me that some big changes are coming for us by the end of the year, but he wouldn't give me any specifics. I guess I should have bribed him.

 

I hear ya on the wind ... 42K yesterday and only got 6.2 ...

Heading to Laredo for a Thursday live unload ...
