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

Those "workers" up on 65 south of Seymour would have just said "I ain't bending over". From the sitting on wall position of course...

Getting tired of taking 31 thru there.


Brrrrrr Mississippi cold.
Can't believe January is almost here. Times winding by quick.

How the heck did I get 8600 miles last month 8.1 mpg being down for 14 days and laid over two other times ???? Dahell is that?

Guess it wasn't such a bad month after all.

My Qualcomm said I went 1268 mi in 9.5 hours.

If you ain't first youre last eh.

 

14, 006 for October , best month in last 35 months

Mpg 6.46 ....no opti idle here!

 

You got us beat we only had 9545 for October

 

I really wonder sometimes about drivers that Conway hires, I was friends with team (husband/wife) on Facebook and he posted today this huge post about how the Calexico yard sucks and he was scared to stay there because all Mexicans are criminals and those #### "########" stealing parts off of our trailers,and he was shocked that a company like con-way that makes so much money to be cheap and have a yard like that and I was like how stupid can you be to go on a social media page and complain about the company you work for and on top of it make racist remarks. People need to realize company is on facebook too and they can see that crap

 

That calexico yard does suck. Was only there once during my short time at conway. That one visitwas enough for me.

 

NBA
Nothing by Africans.

Huh...we were being racist right?

Pffttt I ain't Mexican and I steal our parts all the time!!!

I leave my bulb dangling just in case the next guy actually does walk to the back to check lights :O


Good thing I didn't get here quick.
Got shunned for "no power here excuse"
....yeah right there are like 50 trucks here and tons going thru... -.-

Sooo here I sit for my scheduled drop and hook.
Conway isn't even on the guards drop list for the customer ala it will be a live unload.

Found a dead end nearby.

Prairie farms milk is middle of the road.

Tried a shortcut but there is a 7ft 8 bridge soooo back track on service road. By the time I run to terminal customer terminal Walmart papa john then back to customer it put me 8 miles oor even with my south Carolina snowy shortcut. Tragic.

Rather pleasant day weather wise. Have nice shower heads at the pilot nice hot water. Tile was dirty.

 

Prob be 5k for Nov ......highlighted for the house !,

Got me a crappy 2100 pre plan out of Connecticut. ...... HAZmat , ups 333 mi down to Hagerstown MD

 

Babysitting this morning while the wifey goes to take the 8 year old, and 17 year old to school. November 23, our son will be 18 years old. In May of 2015 he should be graduating high school as long as they don't have a lot of snow days. The wifey went Christmas shopping on Saturday, while I babysit our daughter. Glad the Patriots beat the Broncos yesterday. DVR'd the game. Got a call yesterday from one of my Seal buddy that I was in BUDs training with to be a Navy Seal. Working on a book about what it was like in Iraq and Afghanistan within the federal regulations without putting me into trouble with the Feds. It will be a must read, because I will go in detail about our injuries, and how I became clinically dead when they rescued our team in Afghanistan. The 3rd oldest will be 18. Wanted to make that clarification.

 

Do they call you froggy lowgear?

I'm calling you froggy.

(Was reading about frogs and how they survive in all climates last night to kill time)
Apparently their heart can stop for quite some time if frozen then when it warms up it starts beating again.

Exciting life eh. Resisted urge to go to doggie track even though the roads fixed.

Conway prepaid the lumper. Idiots.
I wanted to unload the whopping 16 pallets double stacked light. been done in 10 minutes.

Criticized the lumper service said I didn't like using them. Too many damaged items & way too slow I says in front of the shipping window.

No green light on the door.
No courtesy call.

I'll take tsc all day everyday over family dollar/dollar general.

Dollar tree was good....thats prob why they were bought out.

Nap time.
