    What routes are you doing to get a 3K week ?
    I do the loop-de-loop in the NW and don't get that
    My avg on a good month is around 22-2400 per 7 day week
    The Henderson Vortex i have begun to call it :)

    I never had any better miles running out west. Sure, it's 22-2400 miles one way, but since Poly doesn't scan paperwork a round trip takes more than one pay cycle, so there is a skipped paycheck for 44-4800 miles. I can manage 23-2500+ in less than a pay cycle running to NC, MI, OH or GA and back to TX to turn in paperwork. Other than the scenic view, there isn't much of an advantage running out there unless that's home.

    I gave them the same treatment. I was in Lowe's and one of the managers called. He got voice mail. It turns out that even though my truck was in the shop last week, they didn't do the state inspection that was due by Sunday...T.S....now they get to have one done by an outside shop...since I am leaving in 2 weeks...I couldn't give a tiny flying hairy fornication.

    Got my backhaul out of Maryland. Dropping it in gp and picking up my home load Monday for a Wednesday delivery. As of today's payroll I'm over the 50k mark for the first time in my driving career. Things are alright for me right now.

    Well, it's official. I sent in my 2 week notice...via txt message. Since I don't know anyone's e-mail in the office, and most calls go to voicemail anyway. I picked txt message because I wanted something with a traceable time stamp. Within minutes, I got a call asking the reason...and after a brief cordial and professional conversation, I am formally on my way, as Friday the 13, I am outa here.
     
    28, Bumper, tucker and 2 others Thank this.
