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

We've heard that the Canuks are switching Lonestar back to Peoplenet, but not sure if these cameras are compatible or if they changed those as well.

 

This load just got more unproductive. This is one of the "call 24 hours before delivery" loads. The customer says they cannot accept the delivery until FRIDAY because they are reorganizing their warehouse and have no place for it. So, this just turned into a 11 day 1371 mile load. I am missing grocery warehouses more with every load.

 

Just a quick update, Arlington worked it out with the customer and they're rerouting me to another of the customers warehouses in Pueblo. I haven't gotten an updated time to deliver, and this all happened right before everyone in Colorado went home for the day, so I am not sure when I need to be there...but at least I am getting this oven off my back and out of my life.

 

I never got any specific time to deliver, so hopefully I won't get down there and be delayed more. There is a storm coming in Friday night, then some really cold weather coming behind it. I would like to be out of this area before it gets here.

 

Got empty in Pueblo without any issues. Then they sent me to Wichita to swap my conestoga for a step. Pick up a TMX load to Rancho Dominguez for next week. It says deliver Tuesday, I am guessing because of the MLK holiday. Will check with them tomorrow or Friday to see if they're open on Monday or not. If they aren't, then it'll be another 1300 mile week unless Rancho can pull a rabbit out of his hat and find me a load I can deliver by Friday. If it is only another 1300 mile week, that'll be strike 2 and would mean 4 out of the 5 paychecks in January would be grossing $1200 or less. I can drive a garbage truck making that kind of money, who needs to be OTR. As far as I am concerned, TFI can suck my Willie Wanka everlasting gobstopper, they obviously don't need experienced drivers. They can go bankrupt for all I care.
