    What did that look like?

    If it's a 20' pallet going to a house, that's a bridge well burnt, IMO.
     
    AM14 Thanks this.

    I'd advise against Con-Way. They do like their driver facing cameras.

    After having the pleasure of meeting the recieving clerk, I don't think the drivers can be blamed for anything although I'd love to hear some of their stories.

    Stuck at the shipper. 2 hours to load and right when they go to get the C of A from the lab and then scale me out, a transformer explodes right out in front of the plant, taking out the power
    Can't leave until I get the C of A and scale. I already know they put too much product on from my load suspension gauge, but can't don't know how much until they scale me lol.

    Just want this week to be over

    Ah, took my truck into my mechanic today. Fan clutch went out, fan ran constantly all week, but with some strange sounds. Nothing I was gonna do about it until I got back home today. It's always a fun surprise when your mechanic looks at it and goes, "Do you have any idea how lucky you are to have made it here?"
    "Why?" I ask, naively.
    "Your hub went out because it's shot the bearings. See that bit of metal sticking out under it? Your fan should already be inside your radiator."
    ...yeah, those are the moments that make you realize that, sometimes, you just got #### lucky.

    does anyone know if Frito will let you park overnight in their drop yard across the street from the main plant in Orlando?
