Millis OTR journal

Yeah that's what I thought when I saw it too.

 

I'm so ####in mad right now I could bite nails in two. They misread the pickup number when they loaded me and loaded the wrong load on me. Nobody realized this until *after* I had pulled out of that godawful dock, strapped on the load, and gone to check out.

I'm about ready to tell them all what they can do with this mother####ing load of ####ty "beer."

 

Sooooo its 70 in Eau Claire right now....and starting Weds into Thursday they are calling for 8-12inches of fn snow lmao

 

Warmer there than mid Alabama. Currently 66 here. Won't be 8 to 12 inches of snow here Thursday though.

 

Does anybody know if they'll raise a fuss if I do my 10 here in the Lexington Avenue staging area? The banner over the entrance says don't do it, but I see a lot of drivers that are apparently doing it. My 14 is going to be gone by the time they un#### this load and I really don't feel like trying to find somewhere else to park. These people can suck it.

 

Always have in the past. Not sure if anything has changed. I'd say you earned it since you needing to do it there is on them.

 

That's what I'm thinking too. I'd be right on down the road if they hadn't jacked up my load.

It wasn't too hard getting backed in the first time even though they put me in 82, which is one of them where you have to be sticking out the OUT door before you start to back. Putting it back in 82 took me 35 ####### minutes. I half expected the truck to start complaining about clutch abuse.

This load pays 1305 loaded miles. Which is a good thing because if it were shorter I might tell them where they could stick It.

 

On the bright side, Uber Eats delivers out here.

 

How long does it take night dispatch to get back to you? I’m in Streator was supposed to pick up a trailer and there is no paperwork other than packing slip. Not complaining because this place looks like a great night sleep. Plus it will be my second Chicagoland load of the day and clock is running out so lots less stress if I stay here.

 

Usually a few minutes up to 30 ish is my experience. Varies on how busy they are. The tip of the funnel going into dispatch gets much narrower at night.
