    Remind me, when did you first tel them you needed to get home, where was you and if loaded where was the load going?

    Load was rejected for being frozen. Told to run reefer at 0 continuous, so I did. Should have been set to 26 continuous. Now I wait.

    This is like a bad dream.
     
    Shock Therapy, Vic Firth and Tug Toy Thank this.

    So exactly how long do you have to wait for it to reach 26 degrees?

    I just got off the pipe with dispatch, they're trying to get somebody to work a little overtime to unload me onto another trailer now. If nobody wants any of that yard and a half, I'll have to wait until 0530 tomorrow. The fault was at the shipper, evidently they've hosed up several of these loads recently and Tyson took this opportunity to make an example of me to them, sticking them with a very hefty detention payment. I'm all for easy money but the timing on this was absolutely horrendous for me. Looks like I should be home by around 1000 tomorrow...I hope.
