    Pilot, Oak Creek, WI. Awake this morning and see 3 pplans and who sent them. The planner that was supposed to be taking care of us last week. First one pick up cans in Gary and bring to W. Allis for morning, and then dh to Augusta and get one for Dandridge for Tuesday, early afternoon and drop and pick up another back to Augusta for Wednesday night. It is going to be somewhat of a push, 2000 miles from Monday morning until Wednesday night. System says that it can be done, but the hard part, when hit KY and TN, not going to be able to maintain any real speed in those hills.

    Sumner, WA.

    I had to bt out from my delivery this morning, and of course there are no mt's here at the terminal.
    The first pplan was avoided, but the second was a bit better.
    It's a Sears load going to Montana, 3 extra stops and all delivering on Wednesday.
    That is a lot better than going back to OR.

    I called the planner and explained my mt situation and he dispatched me bt. Sweet!

    Here in Bloomington. Had to get a reserved spot. Today on my way to Augusta was asked if could cover a hot load out of Bush's and get it to Dandridge by tomorrow. No problem. Then showed up and was not even ready. Waited for over 2 hours and that cut into my 14. Really could have used at least 1 more hour and then might have made it to the 202mm and then tomorrow only 520 miles left. Then the one that I am picking up tomorrow was then pushed out until Thursday delivery so I am ending up with all of 2100 ldd miles for the week and almost 600 mt. Then when get bac to Augusta on Thursday, another 34

    That would be the kind of person who will call swift a couple days later and you said you hit him,then you get fired for failing to report a accident not a very smart move on your part
