Con-Way Truckload Drivers: What's Your 20? (2014 edition)

all right all you poetry fans...this ain't no cheesy limerick

I can drive a truck
as if I had stolen it
catch me if you can

 

can you spell haiku

 

Well, its a 12 speed, Cummins, tag axle...two out of three ain't bad.

the Qualcomm doesn't work, the inverter doesn't work, and there's some kind of a water leak because the mattress is wet...I know what you're thinking but it wasn't me!

heading to an international dealer in the morning see if I can get the water leak fixed and Lee inverter fixed...when I gotta find me a Qualcomm shop...probably West Memphis.

I might pull a load by next week sometime

 

and according to the Chinese calendar... this is the year of the rooster...lock up your daughters

 

I knew I could count on dubs...your knowledge astounds me

 

Demopolis to somewhere in Wisconsin...Still on paper log, I still have an air leak, inverter still doesn't work, 30 degrees outside and the TA in Troy Illinois has the air conditioning on in the showers, waitress in the TA said I'll be right with you...10 minutes later I still hadn't seen her...hey one of those pre-made sandwiches in my truck...I only get a 10 power break toots

other than that it's been a good day...somebody said, cheer up, things could be worse... So I cheered up, and sure enough, things got worse...

I told West Memphis I need a Comdata card so I can buy fuel for this truck...they give me a Comdata card that is designated for contractors...company driver can't use it

 

Yeah bird it could be worse. Such as me getting a load from Macon GA to Kissimmee FL and then having to deadhead back to GA because FL has no freight. Thankfully I live in South Georgia so i guess ill be going back home.

 

Ouch , deadhead miles and you gotta buy the fuel

 

Well its better than trying to take a load for 0.60 cents a mile heading too Jersey. I actually saved myself $100 dollars just by doing that. Quite honestly anytime I'm in Florida its a typical rule for me to just deadhead back to Georgia. Rates are really REALLY terrible in Florida for a dry van.
