    Well my week has already started out bad. Tuesday is my first day out. Well good news is bids came out and me and partner will be running Gulfport, MS so that’s good. No more ATL, Chattanooga, or Nashville. So excited. That will start in two weeks unless they throw a curve ball. But coming out of the first weigh station some driver wasn’t paying attention and came into my lane which caused me to swerve into far left lane. I maintained control. We were only going about 45 so nothing crazy but man lucky for him he didn’t hit me. I checked before I made the maneuver that no one was in that lane otherwise I would have let him hit me. Then our team we meet was running way behind schedule then my partner took over and had a blow out on his lead trailer. That was a 6 hour delay. So we are about 7.5 hours behind schedule so my week is just screwed right now. Oh well that’s trucking right. Just gotta make the best of it.

    I'll probably see y'all as I run across the Panhandle to Louisiana quite a bit.

    Good job keeping the wagons under control. I'm sure it doesn't take much to really get those things wiggling.

    Oh no. The slightest movement on the wheel and that wagon on the back starts wiggling lol. But yea you gotta have control over these things. It takes practice and time and experience to do what I did today otherwise one might end up in a ditch or flip over. And yea you will see my other teams running that way and I will be joining them here in a couple of weeks.

    Had some ac issues at the house that kept me up all night last night. Got a late start this morning but I’m out today with a driver and he’s showing me the ropes. So far so good! I’m loving this easy work

    @Matt1924 how long you going to be with your trainer. I concur this is easy work and easy money. Hope you get your ac fix man. Living in the south with no ac is harsh.

    Man that sucks. No a/c that sucks. I know how it feels. The fan in our truck is not pushing hard no more. So it gets hot in our truck during the day. We will be getting it fixed next Monday since we will be off. We don’t feel like moving our stuff from this truck to another truck lol. Besides when you making the kind of money we are making does one really think about the a/c? Lol. Of course we do lol but we start cooling down once we see that bank account lol.

    I anticipate being with someone through this week. Its all the paperwork that I've got to get the hang of and I'm sure I'll pick that up pretty quick. Other than that, today was really nice, lots of stops and pickups then back to the terminal.
