    I'm home. Got here at 4pm. My 1pm delivery was done at noon, 30 minutes after arriving. Sometimes it pays to get to a delivery early.

    I take it based on what JB has written that Abilene pays every two weeks??

    Correct.

    Sittin at Groveport next to my decadent. Pulled in and 1490 was here, just need 1290 to pull in next to me...lol. John called me at Forrest City this morning (well yesterday morning) and told me to be here by 0900. BOL had 0100 on it. Got here at 0020, would have been earlier but stopped to scale and fuel and once for a cat nap so I didn't hit rush hour in Louisville.
     
    JohnBoy Thanks this.

    This is the first company I have ever worked for that pays this way. It's also the best way to get paid. The simple fact being that if I go home for an extra day or two, I can come back out and run hard to make it up, if I want to. Our pay period ends at midnight on Saturday night. All bills need to be in by then. What ever receipts we have left over laying around in the truck, on the floor, or in your bed needs to be in by noon on the following Monday.

    John, I'm going to assume a Wednesday return to the yard. We have a Monday AM delivery, don't know if they will take us early. Can you gently remind Tim on Monday or should I? Have a great weekend!!

    John, I finally got a student. A quick refresher should be going through Orientation this week. See you at the yard.

    I already spoke to him. They will be keeping an eye on you guys and will do what they need to to get you back. When I call in on Monday if it's looking like Wednesday, I'll just come out a day later. I'd rather be home an extra day then sitting in richmond waiting on you.
