Crete Carrier - A Year In Review - Fall 2013 Going Forward

I don't think he was coming out of that driveway kinda behind the trailer, so it appears that he was attempting a u-turn. Isn't that a termination level offense over there?

 

Yep. That guy probably got sacked on the spot.

 

If a driver was tight on hours, or just wanted to goof off a whole lot, I'll trade loads...

 

I agree with the hiring comments, the drivers lounges now days looks like a Haitian refugee camp.



Seems like there is a Crete propaganda trailer sitting at New Kingstown with the top ripped up like this one. I so should have took a picture.

 

When I was there, there was a billboard like that one sitting there, with a topped tractor right next to it. Bet it was that one right there.

 

As for "tight on hours" I made it to Ottawa (KS) last night with 4 minutes left. I gotcher "tight on hours" right here.

Oh and that was going a way that cut off like 40 miles from the route suggestion.

Also, 169 from Tulsa to Ottawa is a pretty good ride. Blows 75 between Tulsa and I-35 the F away. Most of the little towns on 169 are bypassed while you go right through them on 75.

 

I had 3 days at Wilmer, a short load out of there, to a 560 miler that has so much time on it.
At least I'm in a great area.

 

So how's the owner op thing working out?
Do you get better loads?

 

Define "great area" - I know east Texas definitely isn't, unless on the coast.

 

Indy terminal is a great area for me,and the yard is already re-asphalted.
