    30 miles from Staples in Kansas City, delivers at 1000. Then straight down to a little town just outside Joplin (155mi) for a load that delivers in Atlanta at 0745 on Sunday. Now we're trucking--'bout time. I'm not even gonna complain about how insanely tight the load is.

    Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds? And whose idea was it to make abbreviation such a long word, with no accepted abbreviation?

    Two days to do 150 DH and another 800 loaded is tight? Just how slow is your truck?

    Well I'm glad to hear it's slowly working out for you Cap like we thought it might. I'll be back to work on 2/2/15 so I'll catch up with you on the road somewhere.

    Oh, and since we're pondering the universe this week, why do we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway? :)

    Governed at 60-- the Zoom is ironic. And the load picks up the afternoon of the second then delivers first thing in the morning on the fourth, essentially taking that day out of the equation. Not to mention the time I lost on my 14 today getting the previous load delivered.

    The town is Baxter Springs KS, pickup at Bagcraft who appear to want to make sure I can't deliver on time by running out my 14 while I'm waiting to load. Well I get detention after the 1st hour and Gordon has already proven they will work with me if I get delayed. Metaphorically putting my feet up and relaxing.
