JCT

I'm sure it will be the other way around LMB

 

All this spent up sarcasm stems from the fact I wouldn't spoon with Jarbo the first night I met him. He tried using the old line "My heater is broke and I'm cold"

 

Sitting in Rocks Springs still, I'm hoping they clean up I80 soon the roads are clear just to many wrecks to clean up. The highway opened for about 30 minutes earlier and they had a 42 vehicle pile up at the 165 mm according to employees at the Flying J there was multiple fatalities because of slick roads and fog.

 

Ummmm not the same way I remember it but if this version works for you than so be it.

Here is some plan old fashioned bad luck, As Kathy and I were talking about getting to the yard for our new parts, I pulled into the hammer lane to allow another big truck out on the interstate and guess what? Yup he decides to drag race me and win, so I pulled in behind him. Well as I did he spit up a rock with nailed my windshield, driver side, bad enough to be DOT issue. Gee Thanks I needed that! After a small temper rant I said to Kathy, "Well at least its on my side where we already have a smaller chip!" Anybody want to guess what happened within ten minutes? Yup u guessed it, little 4 wheeler decided they wanted to throw rocks too, and bust her side! By the time I get back to the yard maybe I'll need so many new parts they can register the truck an '11

 

Well, I made it to the Flying J here in West Brigham, UT. Delivering to Walmart in Corinne, UT in the morning. I seen the signs about I-80 being closed at Evanston. How many JCT'ers are stuck out there due to DM's being one sided? I myself had a run in with one of the weekend DM's. Or I could've been in the wrong. Apparently it was too much to ask what part of I-40 was closed last week so I could reroute after I was denied coming to the yard for tire repairs, PM, APU repair and put on a forced dispatch that put me over weight all the way to Cali. I tried, but couldn't shake it or burn it off. I was told to call the National Weather Service LOL If that wasn't enough, apparently someone forgot to push back my PTA to allow for a 34 hr restart. Come Monday a DM or planner, I dunno, told me that "we" missed a load. LOL me at 68.75 hrs I didn't miss anything. I did the proper notifying. I'm guessing a big lack of communication over the weekend.

 

i know how you feel buddy, sometimes your the windshield and sometimes your the bug!!

 

Great lookin 379 was it ya first choice and how many miles on her.Best of luck to you
