    When I was there, I was glad they didn't do the anti-referral deduction...as in deduct $1000 for every driver I scared away with my horror stories about the crap they pulled on the drivers.

    Yeah, most long deadheads are out west, sometimes in the east but it's rarer. At least you got a decent run that helps put some scheckels in your pocket as you prepare to leave.

    I had you fill of out west. They got me out there then up and down I5 till it was time for home. The getting out there was fun. The getting back even better

    I delivered my 318 mile load a day late and then they had me drop the empty trailer at The Phoenix yard and bobtail to Denver and grab an empty trailer at that yard.
    But I don't have chains so I couldn't go across 70, it ain't much longer to run 40 to 25.
    And I'd of stayed out an extra week or two if they would quit with the shag nonsense.
