FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

Yay....Not having to go back there is a mighty fine Christmas Present!

 

Yup. But getting home before New Years as my wife's family has their get together then. Merry Christmas to you and yours, RM!

 

FCC messaged me and said they don't currently have a SE division. Said I'd have to run all 48. Do you find yourself running the same lanes with any consistency or do they continue to surprise you with your preplans? And, not being a fan of snow and ice and traffic jams, I was wondering how much running you do into the NE. Do you ever wander into the SW? Thanks.

 

I was in the southeast regional when I started over a year ago. They moved me to long haul division to get me more consistent miles. I didn't know the southeast regional was "dying a slow death." I kinda figured it was in its infancy and they were/ are working on getting more new clients. I have only been to the northeast once (Nebraska to Pennsylvania) in my time here. Wouldn't bother me to do more northeast especially from the plains/midwest. The hardest is to do up the I 95 corridor north of Richmond to DC/Philly/ NY/Boston, but I did a lot of that with Cargo Transporters and Perdue but it didn't kill me. Still I don't miss the GWB and southern Connecticut traffic.

 

I’m at the 3800 neighborhood, and i’ve sat a couple times killing some hours. I hope winter stays away so Fremont can dry out, and the miles keep goin!

 

I must be doing something wrong my last two time off request were approved and I still had to work. Suppose to be home now and was forced on this load of pallets to deliver in the morning here in Omaha. Oh well.

must

 

Agreed. They are really good about taking care of your hometime requests. I put mine in as soon as I leave the house.

So, after dropping at Redlands, bounced 20 miles south to Moreno Valley CA and got a run to Mason City IA which delivers Sunday but am delivering tomorrow then down to Des Moines for a tire load going to Linsey NE, then to Fremont for maintenance and a faulty APU, then, I presume, a load home to Four Oaks or elsewhere in NC. Need 2 b home on Monday the 30th. Been a fabulous last few weeks 2900, 2700 and looking at around 3500 when I (hopefully) drop on Monday.
