    My recaps after today are at least 8 to 9 hours a piece so a short day today then I should be fine after that. I guess I could’ve taken one since Travis said he wasn’t expecting me to be there until Tuesday anyway.

    Good day, Climateers lol i see all of you have survived that storm. I dropped off in Fulton last night. I didn't even cross into Missouri until Sunday because I knew the travel would be difficult. I'm in Kingdom City about to grab some grub. I'll be picking up Coke here soon for Denver, York St location.....ewwwwww...

    Yea that's cool. I don't get why they couldn't have run me a little harder. Seems like everytime i put in to go home they just kinda give up on that week.

    Man.....one of these days they'll adopt the method Palmyra has to check trucks in. It's gotten to the point that I pick up Hershey loads later in the day. The last couple of times I've gone there, the loads weren't even ready, or I've actually pulled the trailer from the dock. The guard had told me that they keep having to hire temp/new workers. These places are doing everything they can with these shortages. It definitely has impacted some of my weeks.

    Oh yeah they definitely do. I guess they wanna keep drivers close so they can get them home on time. That happens to me on occasion too. Either the week ya go home or the week ya come back out, or both sometimes is gonna hurt ya.

    Well I got lucky. I called Hershey this morning and they said my load was 97% complete. So by the time I get down there it’ll be ready. Time to roll

    They gave me my go home load Tuesday night. Absolutely unreal. Pulled outta craftsman tuesday night with a 234 mile danville load for 1AM today. Just got called to the dock at 3AM. After this I'm bouncing home. I had originally put in to get home anytime today and leave on Monday by noon. They may call me an ask me to leave sooner now. But they'll be disappointed cuz i have a chiro appt Monday morning. Guess they shoulda planned better. Anyhow, fyi. When coming to sygma Danville, they now take payment over the relay app or website electronically. Don't pre write out a check an waste it like i did. It was my last com check too.
