    If these fools don’t get me loaded soon I will have to resort to Ontario.

    O/D personal conveyance for me, customer has no overnight parking. Ontario is 35 miles away, which should take about 2 hours if someone doesn’t wreck between here and there.

    Lol. Another FCC driver loading at the same place told me about a super secret hidey hole two blocks away, so luckily I didn’t have to fight that monstrosity.

    Must be nice to be able to use PC under a load, Moore hasn't decided whether or not they are going to allow us to use PC for moves while loaded. Since laden moves are now allowed at "carrier discretion'', they're thinking about it yet over here.

    It’s a really nice tool in the Elog toolbox.

    I don't use PC unless I am empty, but I have yet to have a two stopper where I ran out of time after the first stop. Still glad to have PC at this company. I didn't have it at Perdue and had a two stopper in Pageland SC (Walmart) and Elloree (Foodlion) coming from near Savannah.. had to go to Pageland first then Elloree which was backwards. Wal-Mart took five hours, Foodlion, 4 hours and six hours worth of driving. I told my supervisor, I needed permission to stay on their lot to take my break. Never heard back from him. Didn't tell anybody and stayed on their lot. Did a n 8 hour then left. Gate guard said I never saw you come in. Yeah, you all ran me outta time and couldn't legally drive. He says you are lucky the security super wasn't here. That was the beginning of the end at Perdue for lack of support. Glad to be back in dry van and REALLY GLAD to have PC at FCC. I won't try to abuse it either. I will use it in the spirit that it was intended. It is a total game changer!

    Delivered three hours early after being delayed 13 hours at Clorox in Fairburn GA so drove all night minus two hour nap at Lake City FL pickle park. Sams Club in Lakeland was efficient and let me check in three hours early (my originally scheduled time before the delay). Dropped trailer and parked with other bobtails and were finished with me by 0940. Outta time but PC'ed to pickle park in Polk City past the Loves. So much quieter, too! Still hard for me to sleep during day hours. Took off at 1800, swapped trailers at 0300 in our shared dropyard at Fairburn GA. Then headed to Four Oaks NC but pulled into another rest area at 0400 feeling fried. Night running, I can handle in short stretches, but not preferred mode of travel. Doing a split to try to get my drop in before receiver closes gate at 7pm tonite. 366 to go. Need to get back between 6-7 hours to make it, otherwise, they get it tomorrow.
