[QUOTE="MidWest_MacDaddy, post: 12146415, member: 160037"]Had an interesting 24+ hour period. Had an appointment to drop Friday 0800 but I was arriving Thursday at 1400 and called receiver Sioux Falls to see if they wanted it early which they did. Great. So I was able to zip down to South Sioux City to check on the Richardson load to Rome to see if it by chance was ready early… It was then life took a left turn. Thursday night I was told the load was cancelled. No one can address it until morning. Ok. No worries, BT to Sam’s Club and go shopping. Morning comes and I get my next load back to Rome so I head back to Richardson. Was then told that number doesn’t exist. Yup, delete load number two. So they have me shuttle a load to Fremont and then head to BD in Columbus NE for a load heading to Four Oaks. Longer run so it’s a net win for this driver. Let’s Roll. Arrive and drop my MT and start looking for my loaded trailer. Not in the yard. Call to verify numbers etc. it’s after 5pm so S/R Office is closed. Night Dispatch tells me to look in other yards in town. (Didn’t know they had multiple yards) They look it up to track it and it says it’s in Broken Bow… but that was as of the 26th so not reliable data. (Dead battery on tracker?) searched four lots around BD West and then headed to BD East to search two more yards. (Didn’t know there was an East and West operations either) ‘twas an interesting day. Let’s see what Saturday brings… LOL[/QUOTE]
