    Oh boy .....
    I just got a load that picks up out of Hershey chocolate in PA.

    I have a bad feeling now that you said that about trailer being out of fuel..

    With the lady yelling you are out of of hours. I pulled her in to the Flying J in either Mill Hill Pa, Or Lamar Pa. The TA across the street says Lamar, but the Flying J saying Mill Hill. Anyway only 5 minutes over so shouldn't hear nothing from safety. Another day at the office. Time to see if I can get some Fresh Meat loaf and fixins from the J deli :)

    Today I remembered I hate taking 64 through Va and WVa grossing 78k. Like driving in quicksand and soooo boring. Oh well it was a nice paying load so worth it. Delivered in West Jefferson OH and now Sitting at the TA in London OH. Easy day tomorrow heading to Buffalo for Monday appt.

    I left my number and went to bed. After 4 hours, I went in to check how much longer till repair guy came. Office guy wasn't sure. I go back to my truck to wait. Long story short.....Wingfoot had come several hours ago and fixed it.
    Office people knew but never put it together that Wingfoot was there to fix my trailer....the trailer with the "hot load".

    Trucking is very funny.
     
    Dinomite Thanks this.

    loads are only hot if they dont inconvenience anyone but the driver
    they always told me i had to get the empty over to Dodge right away
    they had none
    until i dropped off an empty one day around back because the regular drop lot was full of empties
    i somehow didnt bust it to get there after that
     
    TruckDuo Thanks this.

    Yeah..I've always said that.Hollywood could make quite the sit-com out of it and never run out of story lines..One has drama..and characters...good guys/and bad guys,victims and victimizers-Hell you name it and Trucking has it..

    Throw in the FMSCA and producers will have no need for canned laughter..:biggrin_255: Course much of that is right here on the forum too...eh?!?:biggrin_255:





    Anyway..In "Yermo",CA just cause I like how that sounds...Yermo,Yermo,Yermo....Going to find out what the CHP is doing in Penny's Diner..JeeGads..What next??:biggrin_25511:
