Con-Way Truckload Drivers: What's Your 20? (2014 edition)

Hey folks, heading to Lancaster for orientation on July 7. Our last child left at home went to Marine basic training 2 weeks ago. Our turn to pursue our future now. . Wife will be joining me. Any advice?

 

Yeah sleep in while you can!

Jeeeeezzzz

Long day finally over....####... Screw this 20 hr days....how the EFF did you do this everyday!??!! You idiot!

Atlanta Texas.
Finally.

Yup...won't be doing that again for awhile.

Huzzah for the garden section being gone !

Now tell those trucks they are in my spot -.-

 

It looks like only a little over 600 miles for the week. Not liking this at all. I am sitting all day to deliver late at night. I asked my fleet manager about delivering early, because the load has too much time on it. He said it's a set appointment. Correct me if I am wrong. Doesn't the pay period end tonight after midnight. My question is: How do I explain this when it comes time to pay my bills? You think the standard monthly bills takes a bad week. I may have to call ops supervisor about this one. I am not being productive sitting here this long.

 

I'd just go & try to deliver early... Where you delivering??

 

Then you get these loads of 7 pallets ...67 pc ... 2300 lb
1740 mi picked up Fri & del Mon

only problem is like empty .... I-84 NY & PA god aw awful

 

It was 2300 hours, but now it's 2000 hours. I already ask dispatch and they said they don't have anything else until Monday. Hansen Brewing in Milton, New York.

 

Called the customer 4 times and no answer.

 

This load was turn to major POOP, 1st we get load picking up at Arvin Meritor in Chickasha,OK delivered in TS that midmorning,they tell us that it a preloaded trl but wont be ready till 6pm but then again it might be ready got there about 230 and check in they tell us "Oh no these load are never done before 8 but we're behind it shouldnt be any later then midnight ,so 24 hrs later its finally done. 6 bobstails 2 of us Conway waiting for loads, we watch the workers come out and take 3-4 smoke breaks every hr, then when we got our load which was not even a third of the trl, the other conway had even less both loads deliver same time in Dansville.
