Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

And then...........

Transmission issues. (sigh)

Service light is flashing and dash indicator is N to F and repeat.

SIGH

 

It's nice the way those trucks are posed. KW, Volvo, KW, Volvo, .....

 

Like everyone else the one thing that bothers me is the preplanning.Delivered in Mn and sat for 2 1/2 hrs.Was sent a load picking up in Minooka,Il dropping at the West Memphis yard.Good mile run,the problem is by the time I run the 300 mile deadhead and hook to the trailer I have 30 minutes left,and I needed fuel and to scale.

Now why couldn't that have been sent 2 hours earlier,so I could get out of the Chicago area,sorry for the rant,been a long day.

 

No freightliner love

 

Hey JB, hope all is well with U

How does it happen that 15 AMX trucks show up at the same TS in MT? U all delivering at the same place or just a coincidence?

Stay safe

 

Ive been subject to that a few times sit around burning your 14 after asking gor a load then get one with no time left on it oe you can't possibly do with what you have left.

Can whoever it is that dispatches these loads see our dot clocks?

 

Sure can,there just to busy out on the patio smoking there cigs lol.

 

Ah well. I told myself before I started truck driving that my first year is is educational I wasn't going to stress over anything too much.

I can't say I kept to the second part of that but I am certainly learning a lot about this industry.

I can already see the direction I need to head in to make this career one that I will retire from.
