    Well this Home Time is getting screwed up already... put in for Friday through Monday.... Saturday am was the only time I “had to be home”.... so totally flexible around Saturday am... here it is 11:30 on Friday night... still waiting to get unloaded... and well beyond my 14... and still 4 hours from where I need to be at 9am... and I was dropping friendly reminders all week....

    Go Figure.... {sigh}

    You can PC to go home, that is if your company will allow it.

    Yes, we get 45 minutes a day for PC... but I wasn’t unloaded until 2am... so PC or not, it would have been 5-6am before I got home with very very little sleep... I would not have been safe on the roads... and then I would be wiped out the whole #### day... I’ll reschedule.

    The ending to a perfect week... lol

    The next time CN goes on vacation,
    I’m just shutting down the Truck... :)

    So I’m renting a car so I have transportation during home time... I rented from Enterprise because they will “pick you up”... lol ... but today, when I called to verify the pickup that I scheduled two days ago when I rented the car, they tell me “sorry, there is only two of us here today so we can’t do that”.

    So add a $20 Uber to that $100 rental... LOL

    LOL ... I hope this trend doesn’t continue for the next three days... LOL

    That's when one says "well, per our conversation of 8/1, I'm supposed to be picked up. Since it would appear that's not going to occur, to whom should I send this Uber bill?"
