    Effective May 15, 2014 Crete pays Florida OTR 21 fleet the same as the rest of the country. No more 2 cpm deduction. Tentative orientation date is 7/7.

    I left home yesterday with a 600-miler to Ohio. Delivered this morning. Next load....an AB load, delivering today, 267 miles.

    I told them to send me to Marietta. I am sick of AB, and sick of being scheduled on loads with no time on them...time to take a 30, eat, pee...whatever.

    So now I'm headed to WI.

    Looks like my my vacation didn't do my attitude any favors....

    Somebody forgot to turn down the AC over here last night. When I got fuel this morning it was 41 degrees. Now it is up to 46 degrees. I guess I’m going to have to take off these short pants I’m wearing and slip on some long pants again. Such is the life of an over the road trucker.

    Well the company's found the least direct way possible to get me home but I guess theoretically I'll be home next week. Memphis to Searcy AR to some little town in BFE AR to Nashville to Victorville CA. But hey, at least there isn't an OH or PA stop in there :biggrin_25523: (sorry Tucker)

    Well I am heading to Omaha...and then some! I turned down a load yesterday because I couldn't do 820 miles in one day :biggrin_2552: They beeped back at me around 0430 this morning with a SLC to Green River, WY to York...PA not Nebraska! A good 2100+ mile run that is timed just right! Says to deliver on the 21st but I can del ASAP. I can make it on the 20th giving me almost 3700 miles for the week. Problem is it will leave me on re-cap trying to get home on the 25th. If they have something direct it won't be so bad. I can also whoa up, get a 34 and deliver on the 21st with a fresh 70.
