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

They didn't pull my paperwork yesterday so I got skipped over. Finally got a dock but going to be a bit before Im loaded. At least Im dropping on the yard.

 

Understatement of the year.

Don't forget to put in for layover.

 

Do they at least have bathroom facilities at that place?

 

I don't think there are any we can use as drivers.

 

Im def putting in for detention/layover.

 

Really? I hope I they send me there. You treat us like animals and can’t provide basic facilities? I’d take the trailer, or bobtail to a truck stop, then they could hunt me down to come pick it up. At that point, it turns into, “I don’t give a f@&k” type of attitude.

I think I’ve been out here too long. My attitude is atrocious, and I’ve been home a week.

 

Naw, they got one in the shipping office. To the left of the window.

 

In my 16 years of driving between otr and local, this is the longest Ive been stuck at a place. Maybe somebody oughta talk to operations about coming here, then again they prob wouldn't care.

 

If every driver they send there puts in for layover, maybe they'll rethink it.

 

Nice of them to let us know, huh? I tell ya, the more things change around here, the more they stay the same.
