    So they are out 6 g's and you expect them to dead head the truck to Dallas. They can at least make a little money before they kick him to the curve. Gee Willikers

    Last few times I was in San Antonio the next loads were to Houston. If they send me to Dallas, where there is a terminal, could be a different story. I will keep you posted.

    Hey Dinomite,

    If you would've broke down on the freeway, Your bill must likely would have exceeded this one... A little piece of advice for you- Never leave the shop with a check engine light on.... How could you explain that one to the Big Boss?????

    When you think everything's fine - there is no appointment at consignee - have to reschedule. So I am the Petro San Antonio waiting for them to figure it out. It's a Coca Cola load, probably they will reschedule for tomorrow. Got hyped to be back on the road, drove 10 miles and stopped LOL! There goes the Mississippi load (by way of Dallas ;-)

    That makes me love my company even more. If there are no loads where I'm at they will deadhead me how ever far it takes to get me a load. And I'm paid hourly so I get paid regardless if I'm under a load or not. I've deadheaded over 500 miles before to get a load. Awesome company I must say. No sitting at all.
