    Ive been delivering 2 hours earlier each day. Started in last, and should be in first place tomorrow.

    Thanks to me getting here just early enough. My relay partner was able to get to the next store tonight instead of in the morning. Two of the other Phoenix drivers were trying to trade me for thier two

    Racine, WI at the Petro.
    And I got the best parking spot in the place. Right next to the scale and a stones throw from the store.
    I didn't get here until 1830, so I lucked out.

    I finally got loaded at 0930 this morning, after arriving at 1400 yesterday. That made me 6 hours late for my delivery. No worries though, the place was nearly deserted.

    Tomorrow is a Lowe's load going down to KS, and the miles are staying pretty good for me.
     
    FerrissWheel Thanks this.

    That would bother me once it got to a certain point. I like more consistent hours.

    I can be as consistent as I wish. Just means i get done earlier in the day on the last day. Guy in Phoenix really dosent care when i get here as long as he has time to deliver. But was delighted i managed to get here earlier.

    In any case, i have a tendency to want to run as soon as possible. Depending on what the load demands. Its a hold over from doing all those jit loads in reefer. It kinda programmed me forever.

    Though on other dedicated routes i had a tendency to do 10 on 14 off.

    beaver ut at ernies t/s.
    the other driver finally showed up speedy's in Lupton az around 1400.
    ended up delivering that load at 0100 the next morning. was gonna stop in havesu az but thought I was gon a be late.
    then got this load yesterday afternoon and spent the nite at Petro in Las Vegas nv. looks like iron skillet closed.
    arrived here around 1300 and hope other driver gets here tonite.
    said he be hete around 2000 but that was him calculating at 50 mph. said he let me know when he does his 30.
    so far he hasn't called.
    was hoping he get hete early enough so I can get back to mesquite nv. don't look like that's gonna happen.
