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

They probably fired him,cant go having good mechanics, you know job security.

 

He quit.

 

Wow!!!
The guy I know he was a great mechanic! He worked on bay #1 and he really was very good! Looking around I don't see Miguel I hope he didn't quit to.

 

Got caught in a war of whose is bigger between A and Sys. Load was supposed to deliver Monday, then yesterday before noon. It came into the Richmond yard at 5 pm. I deliver it at 7:30 pm. Refused. So for the next hour, A and S go back and forth, all while my 14 runs out. So, in the driveway I sit. Out of the way. Until I can get a bit of time to get out of there. Nope. At midnight security knocks on door and says you have to leave because you're blocking the road. I tell her the other security guy said I could stay there and I'm out of hours and cannot. She says she will call police. I tell her go ahead.
Supervisor comes out at 12:30 am and I finally get the lowdown on why this drop was not allowed to be dropped (refer to aforementioned pissing contest). He finally said you can stay when I tell him I have 3 hours left and can then move. Then, just as I get back to sleep, another knock. This time it's the city's finest telling me they want me off the property. Now it's 1 am. So, into violation I go because if something were to happen while using OD, well, that's another lovely thing, and I moved to a Wally World not too far away that the same finest said allowed parking (although it does not usually so fingers crossed that I can at least sit here until daylight as I'm way too irritated to sleep at this point).
Now I can't move until 11 am. At which time I am supposed to be at a doctors appointment with my mother. Yeah, guess who is not waiting and who will be returning this load 1.5 hours up the road to Richmond ON MY DAY OFF after said appointment? After the week I've had, I might just tell them to keep the truck too! Mind you, I'm not too far from my house and I did contemplate just going home once it was determined the load wasn't going to be accepted; however, I've been written up for using OD (didn't even have a trailer but was under a load-dropped it and came back to get it) and for whatever reason, the exception wasn't available. There was also the matter of the place I normally park being packed (had hubs stroll over and check) I guess since it's nice weather folks gotta get their ice cream fix.
So far going back OTR has not been meshing. Ugh.

 

Can anyone guess at wich Abilene terminal I'm at? (Look at the picture) You only get one guess! The winner will get (im joking about this of course!) a vacation cruise ship tour with14 days all expenses paid to Italy!

 

Is it the women's restroom? Sure looks like it! I'll take my vaca now please.

 

It's also happening in the women's bathroom? ( You forgot to say the terminal).

 

I was in Richmond this morning around 0530. Can't speak for the specified ladies' room but all the other toilets had empty dispensers but two full rolls on top of the tanks. More than 3/4 of the seats on said toilets looked like they were being used to catch everything in lieu of the usual water target but there was considerable amounts of T.P. as of my visit.
