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

Trust me, you haven't seen the worse of it. I didn't know they had a shower to begin with. I do feel bad for you when there are other options.

JB hopefully all people involved in dispatching you on that "hot" load catch what's coming to them. As far as your fuel thief.... About 4 years ago I had my own truck. I stopped for the night in Vinton, La. With full tanks. Woke up the next morning with just fumes. I was pissed, I'm a fairly light sleeper and couldn't believe I didn't wake up. If your that poor of an O/O that you can't afford to pay for your fuel, maybe you should go back to being a company driver. Fuel thieves are so scum of the trucking industry, and hopefully karma does pay him a visit. Be safe buddy and enjoy your well deserved home time.

 

JB Sorry to hear about your fuel getting taken. I think it's happened to most of us once. My adventure I was blessed and happen to wake up and in my haste to throw my shorts on by time I got out the truck the dumb a-hole was running into the woods if I would have had my shoes on I would have ran him dowm and beat him neatly to death with my tire thumper. andhe would have been in the woods no one would have seen him Not sure how much fuel he could have got with 5 gallon cans that he dropped while running. let company know and the pilot know but again I was blessed and caught him before he got any fuel and this was at loves in Arkanas. right before 140 - 130 split

 

Glad to hear your home JohnBoy enjoy your time off.

 

I myself can't stand a thief and like you say what goes around comes around and I hope that someone like that gets what they deserve and then some. As far as the dispatch goes maybe whoever was involved will get what they deserve also. Now you can enjoy time with your wife and hope that when you come out at the end of the week it will go a whole lot better. Enjoy

 

Dang JB you are having the week from hell. Wonder how long that took them siphon. I've been having my questions about the back end of this company. I got out of Denver with a broker load delivering up by Erie, PA for Thur but I wouldn't make it there to unload and be home Fri for my dr appt. I called Kimberly Wed about noon to ask her to work on a repower, was waiting for a fight. Got a QC message to take it home and deliver Mon. Worked for me but put me 500 miles out of route. Been here 4 months and never had a face to face discussion. Trying to figure out what her job is. My last company I sat with my "travel agent" a few times and learned what the sales guys and load planners do. Then learned what she did, I helped her out with an oversize load as she didn't know how to plan them out. Seems here we only have a couple load planners but additional outbound people? Hey if it works it works but sometimes I like to know the "how's".
