An old man's career goes flat, Snackbar moves to open deck

At least you get to keep your safety bonus. Just have to deal with a not so sealed box. It didn't do any damage to the trailer or the wing?

 

Change of plans for me. After getting empty in San Diego they ran me back up to the yard to pick up a TMX load to Park City that one of the local guys was picking up for me. There were some drivers due for home time in WA so they're doing the blanket insulation loads out of Calexico, which is all good. It's pretty close to the same miles either way and it puts me in a good freight location once I am empty. I almost made it a whole month without having to tarp a load...but that streak ended. I need to check with the shop. When my truck was in there getting serviced, it was supposed to have the APU serviced as well. I opened the cover on it yesterday, and if it was serviced, it got really dirty really quickly...and the water pump that was starting to leak, hasn't been replaced...I think they just didn't touch the thing. I did my job and wrote it up, if the ####ing thing blows up, it's not on me, I can't make the shop do their job.

 

I have made it over 7 days without having trouble finding DEF due to storm damaged or frozen pumps.

The earliest appointment that Park City had to deliver is 17:00 on Thursday, so unless Wichita has something preloaded for me when I get there, I won't be reloading until Friday morning.

 

Proof that I am not imagining things on this Sam-crappa unit


When I 1st looked at it this morning





After I rebooted the POS






I was sitting in the same parking spot at the Flying J in Jamestown NM for both pictures...the ON-Duty location changed. I wonder how many daily logs I have blindly certified without checking to see if it's location is accurate.

 

Not entirely sure what can be done other than reporting it to Arlington so they can hound Samsara about a bug fix upgrade. I just wonder what would happen if it did that to a driver who got pulled in for an inspection instead of any other ON duty change.

I've had it do that trailer addition more than once. Sometimes it pops up every day, sometimes a day or two later it just reappears. I have also had it decide to pull up and add a previous completed trip number once.

Since it's Daseke who decided to use this #### system, I guess we just have to live with it...
