    That's the way it is. But it is called experience, and sometimes it can be a very hard teacher.

    No Broken Down 69er sighting for 3 days now. He must be practicing his backing at the local truck stop still :)

    The lack of a sighting must mean he has a truck that runs and is busy loading, driving, and unloading.

    Sorry all I've been really busy with a slew of relays. Makes one wonder why in the blue hell people can't trip plan or keep the dang left door closed. Picked up one in Ohio from a drive who explained to me how hard he'd been pushing himself. A whole seven hours a day. Another told me he just didn't have it today and he needed a couple days off. Been out six whole days. I am currently in Sommerfeld Pa waiting on another to get here so I can go to New Jersey and finish it off. He was supposed to be here already but it turns out he's still in Ohio doing God knows what. So this no load is eating my clock...and he's gonna hear it from me when he gets here. I just want to run and earn...that's all.

    More later...

    Before giving him hell, you might find out what the delay was. It might have been something he couldn't help, such as a breakdown. . .
    Of course, he just might not have been motivated enough to leave the cat house......o_O

    I would just grab your trailer and go. If someone started getting on me like that I would probably go inside the truck stop first and eat up time until you calmed down. I might even take a leisurely drive around the block a few times.

    Probably still trying to figure out how to get into the receiver without making a left turn in Jersey.
