    Lol, thanks buddy.
    We're a small company, with only maybe 30 trucks in our tank division. Last week I did a whopping 1700 miles with 1000 of that being a 5 day run that picked up on wendsday and deliver today. You would think that someone that had FIVE DAYS to plan a truck wouldn't have waited for, then ignored my text of 'Hey Buddy, I'm at my second stop, can you please let me know what direction I'm headed so I can find a tankwash'

    Almost 4 hours later, after a very difficult unload, and very grouchy customer, I get ahold of him. I get '"I'm working on it" fine, I get and appreciate that, despite the fact that you've have FIVE DAYS to don't before today. Just quit ignoring me. Whatever, right?

    Then just right when I drive up to Baltimore for my tankwash, I get the new load. Picks up Wednesday, 20 miles from where I originally was and delivers Friday in Georgia for a whopping 600 miles. I cant unload, tankwash, and reload in a day, it's just never worked like that here. So I may be stuck in Georgia for the weekend. 700 miles for the week.

    I only have 2 bills left. Just focusing on that

    Still home. Was supposed to leave this morning, didn't get a pre until 11am. Then, when I looked at the pickup and drop times, there was an extra day in there. So, instead of picking up today and driving a bit and stopping, I'll pick it up tomorrow and just have a normal day. And another night in my own bed. Wheeee
