    Seem to be having a Luddite episode
    First tried logging onto the Crete HR page and failed
    Then triedQualcomm"s https://dhos.omnitracs.com/dhm/
    wanted to download my logs
    Can't even get past the "Company Name" line
    If it's not "Crete" or "Crete Carrier" or "CCC" what is it?
    (Assuming I can log back on TTR...)

    Man, you guys must be really busy to have not posted something in a couple of days!


    Be glad you guys don't have auto trans. I was heading to my truckstop parking spot on Friday. Coming up 146 in the Baytown area. I was lucky to catch all green lights along the way. It was a good thing because when I went to pull into a parking spot my engine stumbled and died like I didn't push in on the clutch. Turns out some gizmo went out and I was stuck halfway in a spot and half in the aisle. I was lucky enough to catch a service truck and they pulled me the rest of the way into a the spot. Had I been stopped at any of those red lights I would have been stuck in the road. Five hours later the wrecker takes it off to the KW dealership.

    Will be passing thru Indy heading to Minooka in the morning. Anybody know how the I65 bridge detour is (or suggest an alternative )?

    I haven't been around Indiana, but I'd probably run I-74 west and then the back roads northwest over to I-55 and Minooka.

    So how did you get to Minooka?
    One of my favorite truck stops is in that town, the Pilot. So much to do around there.
    I delivered a 300? Miler today and of course here comes another 300 miler back to the same place I delivered yesterday.
    But this pos picked up south of me late in the afternoon. And my 14, but delivered in the morning, sure I'd be late, unless they loaded me early....
    Voided. Now a 1,000 miler that I can pick up Thursday and deliver Saturday in Michigan.
    I'm sure it was a mistake and somehow they thought I was in a daycab around home.
    Thank Dog there is lots to do here.

    Well it's day 5 of the truck being in the shop. Seems as though Fed-Ex didn't deliver the part. Oh well another day sitting around the house. Maybe I can get up on the roof and clean the rest of that ol' west Texas dirt off of the RV.

    And if some of you guys remember my co-worker that got the 73 in a 45 construction zone. He went to court and found about 30 or so others that got a similar ticket in the same construction zone. He's got another court date coming up.

    Dang, it's the times like this that it must be nice to be salaried.
    surely the dust blew off on the trip there, or it rained....
    And I hope your coworker gets that ticket dropped (even though Joesph12345 thinks he should hang) did he get fired? I hope not.
