    Can someone kindly remind me when the pay week ends and what day we get paid? I can't remember if the recruiter told me completed trips turned in by Thursday get paid Friday, or if there's a week wait between the turn in Thursday and the pay on Friday.

    Load must be delivered by Saturday 0:00. I think paperwork has to be sent in by Monday or Tuesday. I can't remember. There's a week between load delivery date and pay day though.

    Ended up taking a sort of unplanned home time. Ended up getting sent towards Waycross, GA, so I ended up taking a 34 at home this weekend instead of hometime next weekend with dispatch's approval. In @bryan21384's hometown of Murfreesboro at a friend's drop lot and then heading towards Nashville with the lady. Haven't been to the southeast in a while, so it's a change of pace. I refuse to claim Missouri as southeast on behalf of college football fans lol.

    The pay period starts/ends 12 am every Fri night/Sat morning. You must turn in all your paper work by that time to get paid for the upcoming Friday.

    What you doing in my neck of the woods man lol, I agree Missouri is not southeast lol they need to go back to the Big 12. It sounds like you're in for a fun filled weekend. I can't wait to get back to Murfreesboro, then I can hit up the Slick Pig...a wonderful BBQ joint. I'll be using a cheat day for that one lol. Waycross is good man. They got overnight parking...You'll probably reload out of there

    Man I didn't get out of there til almost 2 am. They took forever to unload. I've been there 3 times and it takes forever each time. I drive to Waco for an unusual reload. I picked up for Pageland, SC. I already know I'm picking in North Carolina on Sunday, headed back to Moberly. The broker called and gave me the heads up though the company hadn't told me yet lol

    Figured I hadn't been with Climate long enough to request adding 30 miles to route through home lol. The ole lady was already in Nashville so just figured I'd head out to Murfreesboro for the free parking and a head start on Nashville traffic Sunday. Never tried Slick Pig, but I'll have to add that to my to do list at some point.

    That's no fun. You're missing out on The Gorge and 450 miles of irritation on I-40. Pretty good miles for over the weekend though!

    Man there was some fun going across 40. Traffic jams for no reason, heavy rain, I loved it!! Lol. I picked up in Arden, NC yesterday and drove to Craftsmen. I got there and spent Sat night there. They were so busy that it was almost 2 thirty when I got out.

    That's a different reload there. I gotta do a local run then take coke out to Aurora, CO

    That's my favorite run -- especially if you hit Kansas on a sunny day without 30mph winds.
