Gator's Prime Experience

ok back to the originally scheduled program.

Went to springmo for physical recert. My CPAP has been messing up. It almost got me in lots of trouble but worked through it. I don't want to get into detail about it but in all if you are on the cpap and team driving make sure the other driver turns off the machine before starting the motor. The data might not be saved and there is little one can do to prove use.

After we got that dealt with we went to leave and they could not get he miles off the trailer abs so had to go to the trailer shop for a quick reading. Well two hours later the entire trailer was rewired. and we left.

Got to ontario 30 hours early as we were to drop at the knight yard and head back out to springmo for my upgrade. But no mt trailers or spots to drop. Sent a 3am message to FM telling him we would retry around 9am. Well at 9am still no mt at drop yard. Sent message asking for a new plan. At 1400 we get told to head to the other drop yard. two minutes later we get a hey its getting late drop that load NOW. Well fontana yard goat was broke so could not drop there had to go to ontario one. Get there no mt but drop. FM says no freight it is too late you guys waited to long. His message was sent at 10:23 but we did not get it until 1400. So we explain it and all is cool except my upgrade will be next week. We asked if we could try and get some mile to try and get me some exra cash. We deliver the load a 0900 appt and surly it took until 12:55. FM says doing his best but it is late. Well 20 minutes later we get a load going coast to coast with deadhead it is 3200 miles and starts a great new week. Shipper went smooth. Oh and it pays really well too. FM made up for yesterday. Glad my frustrating week is over and a better one has started.

Driving on the I5 I saw smke around the bend and knew to be ready. Surely the traffic was slowing quick then we stopped. And sat and sat and sat. It made us late to the 01 but the office handled it for us. We started moving and there was a loaded car hauler that had burnt to the ground and at least two of the cars were damaged. The cab was gone. I think the driver go out cause it was on the shoulder. Well We are headed to the great white north. NJ that is.

be safe
