    Did moore have any other accounts? I only knew of the agc in Spring Hill church hill. My life in the glass industry was limited to those two places since I was on a dedicated account.

    They have (or had when I was there)Pilkington(NSG Group) in Laurinburg NC and in Ottawa, IL. They have a dedicated account from a plant out of Fresno. We would pick up loads from Guardian up in Romulus, MI by Detroit. There was, I think Cardinal, up in PA. There was also a plant called Fuyao Glass around Decatur IL we would load at. Every once in a while we would get Maverick overflow loads out of Wichita Falls, TX, but I HATED that hole with a passion.

    When I was riding on the trainers truck at Maverick, I had the worst food poisoning of my life at the plant Wichita Falls. I got some bad Chesters chicken in South Coffeyville Oklahoma on the way down there.

    I don’t know who was having a worse time, me or the guard in that little eight by eight guard shack that also had a bathroom. It was an all night affair.

    That's adding insult to injury. They treated us Moore drivers like crap there. Average load time was 5-7 hours (when they got done preloading the Maverick drop trailers)

    Not a bad 7 days, especially since some of it was in Cali

    I forgot how much fun container ports are. Just kidding, they suck. Over an hour to get in the gate, that was after “accidentally” cutting the two mile long line to even get on property.
    Anybody want a white t880? IMG_7039.jpeg

    I hear that truck sales are down here in the states, guess they found some customers overseas.




    Empty in record time this morning, now I am headed to Wichita. Nothing dispatched on me yet, but Toledo said there is a "covered" note on my truck, so there is something in the works.
     
    Winnyf1 Thanks this.
