    Down the street from delivery (1.2 miles) in a perfect parking lot. Mostly deserted strip mall with a pizza hut. Bonus since I've been wanting that forever. 7am delivery with The Hobit on the tv until bedtime...... Oh yes, and I got the laundry done at the laundromat also in this strip mall.....#bonus

    Double yellow.....Couple months ago Joplin said to ignore those filter messages as something was wrong with the computer. I asked while there if they wanted to change them and they said the message was an error. Perhaps u have the same thing going on?

    I thought it was an error and sent a 23 mentioning it, but they replied that it really was due. *shrugs* I just do what I'm told...

    Besides, I'd like a face to face to see what's going on with this layover request I sent a couple days ago -- Sat in Corinth MS for 57 hours over the weekend waiting to deliver Mon afternoon, but I've received no response to 2 messages on the subject. Think my FM might have moved on, she was training someone last week...


    PS: I think there should be extra pay for delivering to prisons to compensate for having strangers rummage through your stuff & then frisk you. Haven't felt so violated since I flew southwest

    yard dartt, the only red trucks that are still around are the ones that were sold to lease operators.
    although 2766 was the first company truck t600 that one is in storage in the bus barn

    Managed to ruffle the feathers of 3 different departments in the span of 15 minutes.... Note to self: it's okay to send a macro 23 and just show up at a shop of your choice when otr, but a very bad idea when that shop is the Joplin terminal. Best I can tell, the problem lies in driving 10 miles out of route instead of calling in, waiting 10 extra minutes on hold, & getting dispatched for those 10 miles? I dunno - tired - time for bed, but if anyone has a better explanation I'm all ears.

    Stuck just outside of St. Paul. Parked on an on-ramp and the truck just started sliding off the road. Going to run the truck all day and see if some of the snow melts, and try to pull forward again. #### winter weather in spring...

    Birmingham Al, waiting for guy to hook back to his trailer he dropped in the driveway.
    Only one way in and out, blocked.
    Not sure why his trailer is on the ground and Landing gear are up.
    Pretrip? Pull or tug test? Looking under every time to make sure jaws of 5th wheel are latched around king pin?
    Learned years ago from being in Canada to check every time if out of truck.
