As you can see from the picture above, I am back in my Tessie. It started out as good as it could be at the time but then came the hammer to crush my balls. I took a load of raw turkey from our yard in South Dakota last week for Los Angeles, CA *GAG* and made a decent headway to get it there by Thursday afternoon. The pay was $4200 after everything under the sun, so not a bad way to start right? HA! HA! Right. While sitting in Milan, NM, I called the receiver, one RW Zant, to question them about their operating hours. Well, they offered me a 13:00 appointment, which I gladly accepted as I knew I would make it. Thursday comes around and I beat it down I-15 to LA and make it with 15 minutes to spare. When I get inside, they tell me that they will not unload me at 13:00 as I was offered the day before, but instead would retain the original 16:00 appointment. To say I was pissed off is an understatement. They even got rude with one of my CSRs, which twisted my crank even further.
Now you may be asking, "Why are you so pissed off, Pyg?" I'll be happy to tell you. The man who runs our California board dispatched us by what time we may be done unloading. So he dispatched me on a four pick and one drop off load that came out to $5100. It was for Hyvee down in Chariton, IA. Not only did they keep me for the 16:00 appointment, they held me over four hours after the fact. The produce warehouses ended up closing on me and I had to run all four of those picks in one day. This severely damaged my clock and I ended up having to repower the load off here in Colorado and finish a short trip for a whopping $115.00. I still get about $3500.00 of the original one. I'm on a 34 hour reset now. Nothing to do but try again on Wednesday and hope for the best. However, that warehouse is on my "refusal" list for the foreseeable future. -
Just got my load information and I'm not the happiest guy in the world. It will only pay me about $2,067 but it will get me running back on the highway and hopefully something better right after. Sadly, this will lead me to the weekend and I can about count on having a crap check for the next week after this one. I will continue to plug along. Still one can only hope for the best. Pyg out!
