    Well did u think maybe there was something more wrong then just blowing out the module? And lucky they didn't send you regul9servicr you would still b waiting. Take a deep breath and relax, no reason to get all huffy. There paid hourly and will nurse the clock.

    What the did was dismount the whole unit, carry it over to a workbench, then they blew it out and remounted it. Gary, Indy, Carlisle, and Edwardsville would all have had me out of the bay in less than five minutes.

    You're right I was lucky they didn't make me drop it. Last time I was here I had the same problem and they made me drop the trailer, promising to have it done by 3 am. I didn't roll out until 8 am. Made me miss my go home load. It doesn't take much for the Atlanta shop to set me off.

    The Atlanta shop is the worst shop I have ever been to. Took them 3 days to replace my radiator because they were "missing some bolts".

    I knew about the goatpath/75 mph thing...I'm from here ;)
    And I have been loving it!!!
    Going home, though. Heading to Big D, then toward Houston, then Neely's Landing, then Missed-again for a week off.

    Taking a week will kill your bonus. Yeah I don't mind Texas goat paths. Just don't get off the wrong one or they'll give u nice ticket.

    I am okay with that, moosc. My life has more important things than money. I am taking 10 days in August, too.

    Yesterday, it was customers. Today, it's box planners...sigh.

    That's cool and all atleast with trucking you can take off when or how long yiu want just clean out your truck and say see you in a week or two compared to other jobs. I just hate turning the truck in and knowing that some yahoo who wrecked or blew up his ride is now in mine while gone. Another reason I don't take more then 3 days. Plus I'd go crazy being home more then that.

    I used to have the best DBL when I was company my DBL wouldn't even ask me to clean out my truck while on vacation or even ask me to take it to an OC. It stayed parked in the yard for 2 weeks at a time when I took vacation but That's definitely not the norm..
