Conway Truckload Drivers what is your 20?

Heading from Blair nebraska to Guelph Ontario via Taylor Mich.the week might end up ok

 

Cancelled my highlight -- needed to be home on day 8, and they assigned me a multi-stop load still making deliveries a state away on day 9. Called and told them I need July 1 off, but they said "sorry we can't do that. YOu have to request hometime 8 days in advance." 'But it has taken you 10+ days both times I've needed to be home on a specific day,' I say. "We're sorry, that's the best we can do."

No Con-Way, it is not the best you can do. You can do better. You must do better. It is absurd to require a driver to stay out 2 months and so he can accrue and request 1 week of hometime just to have a shot of making a 1-day appointment 14 days in advance. And even then, he could miss the appointment if you got him home "early." Or he could be in the middle of a 4-day long load an unable to highlight on the requisite day. Stupid policy!!

 

Agreed. I was just assigned a load that doesn't deliever until day 10 of my highlight a state away from home.

 

You FM CAN highlight you manually if your in the middle of a long load ( I was told by mine)

but yes the timing needs to be handled better

 

Double yellow. I lived 60 miles from Joplin and was late most times getting home.. they drag their feet...

 

He ment ##s*s* ^^^

 

Blow out on Trl Super single ...sitting on I-10 west

too make things worse a pick up was on my driver side when it blew ..
Slight paint damage

 

Home after an 8 week trip...needed the break. A little seafood, some Heat Basketball, golf, fishing, a nip of the smooth refresher....

Someone once told me golf is for those that can't fish...In actuality, golf is for those that can catch their limit and still have 4 or 5 hours of daylight left to kill!

Be safe you all.

 

Sitting in Hubbard,OH fixing to headed to Beaver Dam,WI and then to Menomonie,WI for Saturday Deliveries, hoping to get another load to improve this weeks mile but not going to count on it, also hoping to get some awesome news today that could change things for us. Hope everyone is being safe out there and have a great weekend

 

This is true done it several times. FM can hilite for you.
