    I got signed up on that Paychex site. Guess I'll need to call payroll tomorrow to find out what I'm missing? I have no stubs on there.

    This morning was fun. After running all night with this OS load we hit Las Vegas. Forward momentum stopped long enough for me to back into a parking space. Only hit 3 trailers, 2 tractors and a small animal of some sort. JB said good job! :D

    Parked at the petro about 20 miles from customer. Will be there at 10am and then BT on to Colton for a London KY run. Be safe out there y'all. :)

    Yes, my one trainer said that several times...

    After looking all over for a trailer once, just like mentioned above, yep, found it on the yard.

    Then his words came back to haunt me... lol

    Yup... I have needed to go to Illinois and Florida in the passed year... I asked nicely and they found me a load... Not all the time but hey, if I need to get someplace and the company has a load going there... Win/Win for all.

    As you said "don't nag"

    I had one that was supposed to be in the yard. Looked 4 times for it. Wasn't there. Was instructed to go to plant 1 and look. Nope. Went to plant 2. Nope. Went back to the yard to find a local driver backing it in to a space.

    Of course the flip side is never saying no to the loads they need going someplace you don't prefer to go... Team work... If we are there to help them in tight issues, then that goodwill can bank up for when drivers have a need.

    And everyone here has been encouraging you to do just that ... again. {shrug}

    But you continue to place limitations on yourself to keep that from happening.

    On the yard, but didn't talk to him. Dont know him so you want Bill to make a formal introduction. Don't want to talk without a face to face. Don't want to communicate with the office and leave it to them. Yet when you did, you actually got a "nice" run.

    And everyone here will so totally agree that Abilene is not the best at communication... Thus, we need to be even more so.

    We are telling you how to get the ball rolling and yet you do everything to stop the ball.
     
    Friend Thanks this.
