Location for the night

Nashville OC

 

Speedway, London, OH

 

Pilot Las Cruces, NM.

 

Tonkawa, OK.

 

Pilot x165 I20.

Delivery this morning turns into live unload, guy at gate questions why Schneider insists on putting it as a drop; you're only dropping if picking up.

This makes me late for next assignment, message sent but why respond to your driver.

Get on I285 to get out of Atlanta and there comes from the drivers a grinding noise that makes it sound like a set of wheels are going to come loose and cause the loop to shut down. I get turned around and go to the OC, to wait and then to find out a small rock made its way into the brake drum.

Now I'm late for the next assignment. Another message sent to be ignored.

 

Watkins, CO

 

Gary oc

 

Soon (hopefully)About 50 feet outside the gate of my customer in Painesville, OH.


Put on another double dispatch and have to remind the wonderful Gent on the other side of the phone that I can't drive 5000 miles in a week.

I receive a dispatch for a pickup at 10am.
Problem being I'm 190 miles away at my 8am delivery and still have to get a tankwash.

Appt gets rescheduled to 7pm.....I'll be at my 12 and know that I'll run out of hours. The bigger the plant, the bigger the SNAFU, it never fails.

So almost 4 hours later, an hour and a half after I finished loading, they have to take another sample because they think the batch may have failed.

It amazes and drives me up the wall. These guys are making almost 30 an hour. I've had a 16 hour day and counting and I haven't even cleared $150.

 

Alabama x30 i22.

Tried to outsmart Jill, she's a master at that game and I still end up going the long way to byhalia, ms for pick up. Jill also doesn't recognize x14 i22 even exists.

59 minute average load time is a joke, 4.5 hours later.

Next assignment is a trailer move Columbia, sc to South of Savannah, then bt to Jacksonville to say i was there. I'm sure that will change.
