Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

Don't call in. I know that sounds weird and I also like to talk to a person but think for a minute. Your FM has about 50 drivers; about 70% of them do 600 mile or less daily runs, also there are a percentage that have problems like I have had this week. Fielding all those calls makes it difficult to get loads assigned taking nuisance calls. Back in the day before we had cell phones and computers we had to stop at pay phones. Imagine the added stress technology has made.

 

JB,

Were you s. bound on I-95 in FL today???

More than likely KH. He said he had to be home because he had something very important to do tomorrow.

 

Well if it was him, that was a cool truck. Nice paint job combined with the moose guard. I was going n. bound after getting back from work.

KH

 

yes he sure was. We were yapping on the phone yesterday afternoon and he was down there in Pink Jaguar with Lap-dog land!! Haha. Couldnt resist.

 

That would be soo funny if it were true.

That was me. I had it hard for the house and pointed south.

 

I got home last night at 6:30. I was up and out of the house at 7am, empty in Boca at 8:15 and back home at 9am. On my way home my Qualcomm started chirping its head off. It was a reload assignment picking up in Tampa going to Richmond. The load planner didn't look at the hometime screen to see that I was on hometime, 5 minutes later I get a message from Tim telling me to disregard the load assignment and to go home. Like the good soldier I am, that's exactly what I did. I have some important business tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday, so today is the day I get to take care of the house and the honey do list.

 

Enjoy your hometime. Hopefully u can relax and not have a lot on your to do list...

 

Sitting in Atlanta getting unloaded. Then off to the TA in Cartersville to hopefully get my AC fixed......Again. oh well. At least my Horns work
