    I'm back to work. I had a delivery in Chesapeake this morning at 0630. My next pick up was at 1400. I called and was able to get loaded early, so I'm sitting here in Virginia Beach getting loaded. I'll be headed to Katy, TX with this load. I need days off to rest from my days off.

    Well, my day did not go as planned. After I got loaded in Virginia Beach, I got a message to go to the yard to pick up my trainee. I get to the yard, drop my trailer only to find out, my trainee wasn't ready. Now I'm waiting for Sabra to get my load ready to go to Hall's. Not very pleased.

    Made my delivery in Richmond at 9am. Dropped my empty at HP then went to the yard. Got a load at BH in Petersburg that delivers in Charlotte at 4am. My 10 is up at 9pm. The load is suppose to be ready at 10pm. Then I have to pick up a load in High Point going to Phoenix Az. I have home time next weekend starting on Friday, we'll see how this is going to work out, Jonathan said we will be switching with someone along the way I'm sure.

    Mannington, that's right. I loaded here before, nice pick up. Actually anyplace that doesn't allow you on the dock is nice. I have to pick up a load of flooring going to a LL D/C in Phoenix.

    My bad, it's going to a retail store in Phoenix. Just about loaded, I have 2 hours left on my clock, looks like I lucked out and got on the night shift. I'll be sleeping at the TA at the 170mm on 40 in NC. I'll get up at 10pm tonight and start my day.

    You can have the night shift. I prefer days.
