Calex Express....My New Home!

that very thing happened to me this week picked up my trailer early monday morning from fabrikal and it had 3 marker lights out 1 on top in the front and the 2 marker/turns in the middle of the trailer.turned out there was a broken wire on the bottom lights so that was definately brike when they dropped the trailer. called on call mechanic he said take it to a TA .. took it to the buckhornTA since i had to go out toward pittsburgh for my delivery .. when i got there the only mechanic on duty just left for a road call so i sat there from 3 am to 6:30am called eddie to tell him i wouldnt make the delivery on time and he had to reschedule it for tuesday.. so someone being lazy cost me a day of driving.......

 

Thought i would share this because its not often you actually feel appreciated when making a delivery.. after my fiasco monday with the trailer i was asked if i wanted to take a load of playground from lewistown to Denham springs,LA. i thought sure gets me out of the N.E. for a week... when i called for directions the girl couldnt thank me enough for bringing the stuff down and explained to me that it was for a elementary school that was destroyed by hurricane Katrina ... I delivered it this morning and as we were unloading it the kids where coming in to school and you could here their excitement as they drove by and saw what was there...it actually made me feel like i did something good not just bump a dock and get the stuff off !!!!!!

 

I did one of those loads to a playground in downtown New Orleans, and the folks who arrange everything, and the volunteers who did the unloading were some of the nicest folks I've ever met. They too were very appreciative.

 

Ya I felt the same when I did them was dissatisfied that I didn't get one this week I like gng n dng those they tested my backing skills quit well a

 

was the guy in charge named trainer ???? very nice guy... i even helped unload without pay just because it was for a group of very nice people....

 

Trainer was awesome. I did 2 loads for him and one for cassie and other was trevor

 

that would be one load i wouldnt help unload!!!!! have a good vacation and thanks for the directions.. i rerouted myself a bit after taking a look i went 81/40/75/24/59 taking 75 to atlanta and that way added 100 miles i think thats what google showed anyway

 

No. It was a short, late 20's to early 30's young woman. Can't remember her name, though. I only did the one load for them before I was put on that dedicated account.
