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

or at a red light.

 

If it happens while he's taking his 30, the fuel island will be screwed up forever.

 

Picked up a frito lay load in Indiana, headed to Portland for monday morning.

 

Place I delivered my load of bagged stones to in Phoenix was so tight I thought I was seriously going to have to call breakdown and tell them to find a small day cab to get my trailer out. I was not going to tear up a new trailer.....

 

The new dispatcher i got Jeff,hooooly crap,he must be the most annoying dispatcher i have ever worked with,i thought female dispatchers are the worst(no offence)but that guy changed my mind.

 

Trl 7616. If any of you were the TRAINER that brought this trl down to the DC to be loaded after hitting a tree and knocking the LHS skirt off, you should be written up and stripped of your trainer status. I mean, it only came out of CA and the incident was back on 4/24, so........ WTH people? And yeah, I know all this info because I do my job. I spoke to safety and my DM about do I run with it and then do what the previous driver was SUPPOSED to do or have them offload this HOT HILL LOAD BECAUSE OF YOU IGNORING YOUR DUTIES. Yeah, I’ve no patience for azzhats.

 

Hey now! I was a good dispatcher! The guys at Smithfield loved me! Yes, seriously.

 

West planner really irritated me yesterday and today.....needs to pull his head out his behind....wasted my day and hours today because of planning stupidity.....Deliver in Phoenix yesterday morning then get a load picking up in Santa Fe Springs CA. 357 mile dead head which I couldn't make with CA speed. Could make it to Colton though. Get a dead head move to Colton and local driver was going to live load the load and drop it for me. Cool. Ended up taking that load off me before getting to Colton and puts a Walmart load on me. Get up this morning and go hook the Walmart load and get half way up 15 and my DM calls and tells me to stop as planner decided to have a team get the load. Well. can't stop til Barstow so they set up a swap in Barstow. Team dragged an empty dry van to me from Colton. Sure enough, get sent back to LA to get a load....supposed to drop in WM thankfully being it goes to WV. Stupidity killing me.....

 

requires common sense.
