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

Building a new one. It's in the middle of the bays where all the glass is, BUT as of the other day, it's not functional.

You know how I said Rocky Mount Engines is FCFSand pretty quick? Been shifted down to the warehouse about 8 miles up the road and sitting, sitting, sitting. Yea! <sarcasm>

 

Yeah thats where they sent me,you need to go inside and stare at them a bit.

Have a 3 pu load in Reno going down to compton,its a broker load so you know what that means.

 

It means you miss all the gravy OH runs that I'm doing.

 

Arrived in Whitakers at 0715. Departed 1158. Lovely. Then had to drive right by my house to go pick up a load in Newport News, only to bring it right back to my house where a local driver met me at DQ to get it from me so I could begin my home time 13.5 hrs after I began my day. Does anyone else see the flaws in that?

 

You could have started your home time way before.
Sometimes dispatch don't make any sense!

 

My point exactly.

 

The planning with this company leaves alot to be desired.

 

I'm here for a delivery to " Logistics" in Riverside, CA.
Usually sometimes they send me from here to go pick up at "Sabra" and I just don't like going out of Sabra and have to get the load weight at that small place 5 minutes away! (The one that we always pay $20 cash; I forgot it's name)
Does anyone have any suggestions from experience? Where else can I go before hitting any DOT scales.

 

TA in north Riverside and a Petro right across the street.

Thank you!
