    You've had the busiest weekend to say the least. I'm in Bluffton, IN about to deliver Hershey. I did a 34 in their staging lot, really o other option but to do it this way. Luckily I was able to hit up the Walmart for some groceries beforehand. They burned up your entire 70 this week brother...I used all but 8 hrs.

    Yea we spent Thanksgiving one year in that lot in bluffton. It sucks that there's not a decent truckstop a little closer. I have heard that that restaurant there off 69 where ya get off at is a good place to eat. There on right across from the dumpy truck stop.

    Oh yeah, that's a truck atop with a diner in there. I had to reroute and get off at Marion because they are doing bridge construction on route 124 time I came here I drove this huge circle around the plant because that's what the detour had me do. Or if I had chose to get off at that exit given by the company directions, I would have had to go east on route 218 I think it is I stead wet for a bit.

    I just had to back this drivers truck into the dock, at least line it up for him the poor guy was catching so much hell, and you know tight it is over here. He said his trainer was in the back sleep. I'm not sure if I buy that. I know this much, they don't call freighliners freightshakers for no reason....its been forever since I've been in one of those

    Yea we had to detour last time we were there. But we detoured south off 124 to a road that took us east to route 1 then north and back in 124 west to get in there.

    I would've asked to talk to his trainer. That's the trainer's job. I personally don't believe companies should be allowed to have trainer's training an trying to run team at same time anyway. If trainee is working then trainer needs to be in the passenger seat always. But if there really was no trainer i applaud you for helping the guy out.

    I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said. If he did have a trainer in there, I couldnt believe he didn't hear me talking and cursing a storm....if I was back there I know I would have jumped out talking crazy. Then I started looking at his truck, and I noticed that his daring had damage, like when someone u turns to tight. I had to help that cat out, we'd have been there all day. I did get about 4 hrs detention. It took them forever. I barely made my pickup to Walkerton, IN. I'm getting off loaded in Warrenton, MO
