What to do ?

If hometime is important to you, i suggest you find a different company to work for. There's a bunch of companies that honor hometime when it is requested and there's a bunch of companies that would like to hired more drivers.

 

Welcome to a mega as stated find a company that at least acts like they care.

 

That sucks dude, You need to use that as motivation to look elsewhere. Don't tell them you are doing it either, just do it.

 

Call them and tell them you want it repowered so you can go home. Don't ask, tell them!

 

I worked for a company once that had a problem getting me home. Had a delivery in Texas when I was supposed to be going home to Delaware. I told them if the truck crossed the Texas State line before it crossed the Delaware State line I would be heading straight to the yard once empty to turn in the keys.

They did repower it, but I was gone within a month.

 

SWIFT....Sure We Inevitably F#@k Truckers

 

I know this doesn't help but most if not all of us have been there.
I had been married 4 days and went on the road
4 months later I was still on the road
(Bedbugging)
Everytime I'd get close to home (Jersey)
My boss would find yet another load he just couldn't turn down going the other way.
Finally I got a load going to Minn where the company was out of.
I turned in the keys and got a plane ticket home.
In retrospect, I should've stayed on the road.

 

Except in another thread he said he works for Prime.

 

Next time, if you need to be home on the 21st, tell them you need to be there on the 19th.
