Broke Down 69...The Adventure Continues

It is amazing, to be sure. And you are quite correct. When He calls, you're going.

 

This ended my day yesterday after a very short 217 miles. Took 9 hours to get and change that drive tire.



Told the powers that be I wanted to go home and see my Mother, so of course they put me under a load to Texas. In Morehead, Kentucky now doing a 10 in a rest area...what great fun.

Hope y'all are having a good week.

More later...

 

Home is in NC. Told them when I was in KC that I wanted an Oregon load or to go home. Sent me in a very roundabout way to Craigsville, WV where my Oregon lap starts only to shift gears on me at the last minute and lay a Home Depot load on me that is another nearly impossible deadline...usual bit, "Your the only driver we have that can make it happen....yada yada yada". Bunch of grade A bullplop. Dispatcher screwed the pooch and I gotta fix his mess. I can crank out the miles and it gets used against me constantly. Meanwhile, drivers who do half what I do go home 3-4 times more than me.

Weird business, trucking. To bad I don't know how to be lazy...lol.

 

I hope so. I'm a little road weary, as much from worry as anything I suppose.
