    I got an "a" service this morning, and have a fresh 70, but they're showing I only have 3 hours to work and to call logs, Screw it, I'll just take the day off.

    I like the challenge of scouting out a new location using Yelp and the Trucker Path, or from another driver, I just found out Lebanon, MO had a lot of fun stuff to do around it, except on Sunday.
    And I hate seeing drivers drink and then say they still have more driving to do that day. Those people should never drink.
    .
    Call Lincoln up and get a new truck,

    Columbus has a couple new 40000 series trucks.
    I wonder if me off duty bobtailing yesterday killed my reset, the Qualcomm shows I have 70 hours, yet the new gal only saw I had 3 hours and 19 minutes, or she doesn't know how to refresh the page..
    .
    Edit, bobtailed over to the Hollywood Casino for the first time, beings it was Monday the buffet was closed and I could not find a beer, big waste of time, but the place was still half way full

    No buffet no beer, poor Tucker. Any cute chicks or a strip club nearby?

    There was a strip club and a local bar across the street, but way too scary a neighborhood for me. I'd need a security team to even go near it.
    As I predicted, even with a super fresh 70, a real pos load. 26 hours for 336 miles with a live unload.

    Your tolerance for BS loads is quite high. My last 7 months there I exceeded 9000 miles a month TWICE. Higher CPM don't mean squat if decent miles are not given out.

    Oh, i sent plenty of messages, I got 82 miles yet to drive by 9 am. (I like this truck stop.)
    I have to train these two, it'll be a shock to them that anyone would log over 20 hours on a shag,
    And I'm due him next week, so I need to start winding down.
