    Dude, you work at a run of the mill mega company. Its no different than any other company. Your nothing but a number, they really do not care about you... You'll learn this really quick in this business...

    Oh I'm quite aware that I'm only a number but getting me home on time is something doable.

    The # 1 reason why OTR drivers quit when they get home, is how hard it is to get home time. Sadly, you are now experiencing this, and the FM know this, that's why they keeping you "out there".

    God forbid you up & quit, and abandon the truck (dont do this)

    They don't like getting you home on weekdays at all.

    There are plenty of ports, distribution centers, some Budweiser and coca cola places around my town. I can't say that I haven't thought of it.
