    I remember you told me the story about that. Funny thing with me, unless it's already sealed, I tend to peek inside to see what's what. Never know if it needs securing of some sort. This one? :biggrin_25512: ... lol

    They may not get it at all unless these folks, along with our folks, can find it first. LOL

    Meanwhile, I'm brewing more fresh ground coffee. :)

    Question I have is .... Detention or Layover if it takes more than a day? Maybe both? lol ... I figure detention since it's a shipper screw up?

    Well, Malano security has kicked me off the property and actually quite rude about it. Even threatened to have me banned from here?? WTF??

    No word from dispatch yet and 14 still ticking away. So, do I just bobtail out of here and look for someplace to park? Do I take the MT I brought and docked in A4 with me?

    I was really looking forward to a much need shower on my way out of CA today. Not a decent truck stop for miles around here.

    EDIT: Actually, I forgot about the pilot right here in Hesperia. I sent a freeform telling them I'm bobtailing here. Still no word so here I am. Day is shot in my book so a nice shower and perhaps a truck wash is in order. I called the shop and this truck doesn't have one so this one's on me. It needs it as badly as I do. lol

    Load scrubbed. Sending me to Walmart in Colton to a trailer that's there but they won't load without a driver there with it. That's all I know. Have to ask them when I get there. Gotta run so, so much for the shower. :(

    Eastern time zone drivers messed me upon my time frame. Instead of being an hour out for Monday, we're 4 hrs out.

    Still gonna reset tomorrow instead of trying to roll recap on a 4 hr day. Just wish this Love's in NC had laundry facilities.
