I'm baaaaaack!!!!!!!!

This is one major thing I like about working for my much smaller company. None of this BS about you have to get up and do this or that. I am happy at work again, for a change.

 

What am I missing? You said earlier you ran 2400 miles for the week yet you're out of hours??

 

If that happened to me, there would be a dispatcher or two with lumps on their heads.

 

I had Giltner do that to me once. Just once. I was at Johnson's Corner Truck Stop because the 80 was shut down due to snow and ice. They called me at 3 am and told me it was open now and to get my ### up and running. I got up there and it was still shut down and I spent the next day parked in the parking lot at the little town of Buford. I called the dispatch office and told them I was coming straight in and was going to kick the dispatchers ### for it. When I got there he was no where to be found and the owner tried to talk me out of quitting. No chance. Don't place my life in jeopardy and think your going to get away with it.

 

Bumping the 70 after 2400 miles though...that's some serious on duty/not driving time. Hope it was compensated.

 

Never had this problem since I have a cellphone
When I sleep, my phone is on mute, anybody can call and I don't care.
Never reached my 70 with only 2400 miles, made 3800 miles in 8 days last week and still had hours left...
