    Nothing. I was supposed to be delivering, broke a tooth last night. There's 2 nice straps in there.

    Mine hasn't been going so great either. Just too much wasted time, hopefully next paycheck won't reflect it.
     
    Finfn1372 Thanks this.

    I've been running 400 mile days,sitting at docks all day.

    Currently at Americold in Atlanta,been here over 3hrs,haven't even touched me.
    Load dropping at the Wytheville yrd 389 miles away,and it doesn't look like I'll make it smh.

    Taking vacation in December,can't wait,need to get away from this for awhile.

    I am here in Philly! I am in the dock district. I can see the rusted hulk of the SS United States about half a mile in front of me.

    You will note, if you are familiar with Philadelphia, that I am thus nowhere near the convention center. I drove past there today. I had the right idea, namely the ramp on Vine St. That is indeed where I need to be. Eventually. There were about 25 trucks parked on the curb for several blocks in a row waiting to get in.

    Thankfully, I had the presence of mind to drive past all the trucks up to the gate itself, where a dood told me to come down here to the staging area and sign in. So I am signed in and waiting for the phone call that will tell me to drive down and get in that big line of trucks.

    My appointment was for 11:00am. They tell me that it'll probably be after 1:00pm before I get the call, AND THEN I'll get to go down the road and wait in line with all those other trucks.

    I will definitely be availing myself of the detention macro today.
     
    RebelChick, Lonesome and Redtwin Thank this.
