Trans Am Still

I have another question regarding Trans Am. I have my Hazmat Endorsement but not a Tanker Endorsement, would it make much difference if I went and obtained it or not really?

 

No...don't even need hazmat with transam

 

Lu, you can always obtain them later. Some companies may even pay you for the endorsements. Consider TransAm an apprenticeship of sorts. Learn then burn to another opportunity.

 

Turns out I'm delivering to Roma in Springfield sometime Wednesday.

 

This place, scott? The address is a little screwy on it too....but maybe this will help. If I remember right, they are slow and not real driver friendly ...not bad, just not super great either. Any idea what time you will be in?

I believe that's the place yes indeed. Dunno what time yet my office lost the rate con with the appt times and of course it being Saturday I can't find out for myself til Monday. I'm totally bummed cuz I found a killer load leavin sulphur springs tmaro for twice the rate and home the 23rd I wish I wasn't so high-road ish lol

 

Awww....I'm sorry. I know that getting home by the 23rd would have been great for your baby girl.
There's nothing that can be done? This is a broker load?

 

Yeah. Bad habit to get into tho, backin out on a confirmed load. If all goes well and I don't hit weather I'll still be home Xmas eve sometime.

 

You are right, of course.... But this is a major freight lane and they wouldn't have any trouble getting someone else to take the load. I know you will be ok on the weather here......supposed to be in the low 60's, a chance for morning showers on Wednesday. What and when are you supposed to pick up ? And which way will you be coming from?
Roma is slooooooow .....plan on extra time.

 

Comin from saputo in sulphur springs, first drop in Springfield second in Harrison third in KC and final drop in Bolingbrook IL on the 24th. I messed up and booked this too early didn't wanna get stuck in Texas for Xmas I shoulda known better. Hell I woulda deadheaded home rather than miss Xmas again missed the last two cuz I got money whipped to stay in ND while every one else went home...10 grand to stay and work the holiday week. Probly wouldn't do it over again tho after the year I've had every day could be your last gotta give the wee lass some good memories of daddy
