FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

That flux capacitor will come in handy on some of these over night runs.

 

Well, I got sick last night and lost two of three runs. It turned out one of the local shags was indeed the same run. I lost my run to Kearney and the money run back to Four Oaks. But my big butt had to stay in close proximity to a bathroom as I contracted food poisoning or stomach virus. Tomorrow will roll to KC and pickup the 45000 lb load of dog food to Council Bluffs IA yard. Then a Sue Bee Honey load from Sioux City IA, to Cleveland TN for Monday evening. Weekend salvaged. Took it in the shorts, though, but Mother Nature rules!

 

Keep your chin up brother.

 

The dog food load turned out to be less than 22k, then the honey load to Cleveland TN, just under 44k. They got it off in 23 minutes, but took them 97 minutes to count and present me a $209 lumper bill. Company reimbursed of course. Dropped an empty at Shaw Flooring in Ringgold GA then bobtailed to the J in Resaca for the night. This morning, after a shower and breakfast, pickup another empty in our Dalton yard, head to Madison for a drop and hook down to Orlando for tomorrow. I have missed doing this run. Life is good!

 

Got there to scoop the load and oops. Not ready until tomorrow. Waiting to hear back from dispatch.

 

Shipper error. Layover for me. Go back in the morning and get it to Orlando before original drop dead time of 1800 tomorrow (though I was given an extension of 1000 Thursday).
