FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

When I was in the service, back in 92. my friend's dad gave me his 77 Granada. It was thereby known as "The Boat." It drove like one too. But it was reliable.

 

I learned to drive in an 88 new yorker. Talk about a boat lol

 

an 88 New Yorker? I feel sorry for you

 

It’s been a day and it ain’t over yet.
Wasn’t 5 minutes into my day and an SUV lost it in the left lane and came across my lane and the shoulder, kissed the guardrail and wound up bumping along said guardrail backwards.
Make it a couple hours down the road and head down the ramp to go to a Service Plaza …and met a Prime backing up the ramp. They went down the car ramp and their solution to that mistake was to back up the car ramp to the split and then jackknife it to go down the truck ramp.
Made it to Menards and after a little “who’s on first’ I got my wagon dropped and then found my empty 3 inches from a Crete trailer. I managed to find a yard jockey to pull it out for me and that was doubly a good thing because she was dropped a wee bit high.
Now I’m at Mauser in Addison waiting on a live load. CS said to be patient because we’re a work in. Been here an hour and 20 minutes and still waiting for a door. I think I’m going to be a very tired pup when this is done.

 

I bet when they gave you the load they failed to mention you were going to be a work in and have to sit there all night.....

 

Oh yeah, for the new Windspeed location the entrance is first drive after you turn on to Cold Mill road from Bethlehem boulevard. If you look up the address on trucker path it will point you to an entrance halfway down the block. The place is tight but pretty quick. The docks are on the front of the building facing Bethlehem boulevard. You check in at the office at the front corner of the building. The inner doors have metal instead of glass so I’m sure it’s a nice part of town. You go to the office, they send you to a door, when they finish you go back to the office and get your bills before you pull out.

 

It was passed on when I got the load assignment.

 

Officially switched back over to SWR. First load is an Aurora load that delivers in Pauls Valley, OK on Sunday evening. Currently at home and about to pass out on the couch. Been up since 4 am it’s been a long day

 

Good old Pauls Valley Walmart. Spent many a night terrified of tornadoes waiting to deliver there....

 

Little more tread on the tires and you’d have it. Lol
