    No worries, I hooked up to an empty trailer that had 2 tarps on it (with the help of a cool guy I met), dispatcher called me while I was doing that and he wanted me to pick up that exact empty; I flew so fast here in my 65ish governed international I got to the shipper about an hour ahead of schedule and am taking my 30 at a rest area a few miles away hehehe picking up a load of shingles. This load isn’t due until the 29th in Tennessee, but I’ll get it there tomorrow

    I miss those days. I was so shy. Innocent. A boy with dreams.



    Jokes aside you already doing better than me. I remember my first load I got there and they asked me to dock my trailer. I’m like “what trailer, don’t you have one already?!” Man I forgot a trailer on my first load.

    Coffee helps me with my morning business. I tried to get up and drink my first cup while driving but I usually ended up needing to stop for some ####posting. Now I try to get up with enough time to have a cup and get that out of the way; if I don’t have time, I forgo it.

    Caffeine pills. No stopping to piss every 2 hours. Just get the ones with caffeine only and take 1. About the same strength as a big cup of coffee
