    If I get the chance will pass by say hello unfortunately I am one of those container guys but I have patience yeah lots of people hit the fence deliver and pick up there quite often they are very slow but maybe they will send you around back.

    Hey y'all! Did ya miss me? :) ... lol

    Well it's been an eventfull first month for me. Tad too much to type about on this small android. But in the end this will be a great (full) pay period.

    Sitting at Nordic Cold Storage in Atlanta and after some information chasing, waiting to be "worked in" to get loaded. Arrived at 9:54am. Low on hours and recapping but "if" I get loaded and get this to Richmond tomorrow, it'll be 7105 in miles for the period. ;)

    Hope y'all are having fun and being safe out there. :)

    Hoping to be there myself for the same (although not so minor on repairs me thinks). Would be great to meet you.

    I was actually surprised. Thought it would be less. About half and half between west / east coast. Just spent the last 3 days running in FL .... Not fun! LOL

    Hey, on the CB do all you container drivers go by some three digit number? Is that a truck number or are you all assigned some systematic number or something.

    In listening to the CB it doesn't sound like most are using a handle but rather a three digit call sign.
