    Ran my butt off to international falls, MN to deliver this am at 8:15. Apnmt was a 8 to 3 window. Now I'm in Rothschild to get washed out and go a few miles and load up for Alberta!

    Always comforting having to call and ask for the load info....after 5.....sigh

    And remind them that I don't have any pars stickers.....sigh

    I feel for you folks... always fixing tires, this and that... :biggrin_2552: Remind me of my old days as an OTR in my former company... Hey, less than 30 mins to get a tire fixed...? :biggrin_2554: Where was that?
     
    Dinomite and TruckDuo Thank this.

    So... I didn't make extra $500.00 because back in middle of May, on my first day driving the truck after I came back from my 3 months away, I forgot about the 78 maximum speed limit rule and let truck reach 79 mph going down a hill somewhere in the west... it took only one second... :-? but then it was too late... :biggrin_25510:
    Other than that... everything seems great... So Mr. So and So said... Idle was 5%, 7.8 mpg which was great...

    And so... freaking Peoplenet is back alive in "my" truck... :biggrin_25510: And Mr. So n So said it should work fine now...
    And I was enjoying so much to do my paper logs... wasn't cheating... really... but just knowing that I didn't have that freaking box counting how many minutes I had available before mandatory parking, was very helpful... it would at least diminish the stress and help me with the planning... :yes2557:
    I HATE ELOGS!!! Did I say that I HATE PEOPLENET TOO...?

    I'm taking my 34 here at the terminal... Another driver will bring me a loaded trailer tonight so he can go home for his time off and I will start driving tomorrow morning...
    Going to deliver in Washington state... DSP told me to call CH Robinson to reschedule delivery... HAHAHAH.. Instead, I called the receiver and reschedule delivery straight with them... :yes2557: Customer and I both agreed that CH Robinson is notorious for messing up schedule appointments... :biggrin_2559:
