JJ's Place

OK need to put in a Disclaimer, I don't like cats so I call it a Kitty Whomper and ya can't tell a Kitty will walk away after that hits it!!!

 

I am still against my 70. Sitting in a small rest area on rt 33 south of Columbus.
I should get to Kalamazoo by 0700 for a 0730 delivery, leaving here at 0100 eastern. I should have about an hour left to use for the day when I get there.

I gave you all that info so that I can say they planned me for my next load.
It is supposed to be a live load 94 miles north of my delivery location. It is supposed to pick up at 1600 tomorrow (wed) afternoon and deliver at 1600 on Friday in Poland Maine. I will get back 11.75 hours on Thursday and 8.25 on Friday.
A good 1000 mile run for 48 hours. He said he is going to try and get me a relay.
Anyone but me see the problems?
Or is it just me. He sent this and then told me later that he would "try" and make it a relay.

 

Unfortunately, on this KW, they thought of all the tricks and then countered them. Only way that I CAN keep the trk running is, put it in gear, set the tlr brake, then release the tractor brake. Not sure how good that would be on the tranny tho so..... and I can live with the temp at the moment. Luckily, I was able to run daylight hrs today.
Jess, no clutch in this puppy. Automatic all the way.
Like CD, I am up against my hrs. Week started slow and have had no big trips, but they have been consistant. I have 5.75 hrs I can run tomorrow then I'll either hit the TK in Madison, WI or the comapny will get me a motel. After that, hrs will be coming back but will have to make night runs. Oh well, thats the life we chose ,eh.

 

Sorry Jess, forgot. No, we can get our APU's fixed at any TK shop. Was going to get it done in Columbus, OH today but they were backed up and not able to tke me.

CD, I did look as I went by and Petsmart does have a warehouse off of Broad St. You can see a sign on the building as you go by. If your heading south off of I 70, its one of the 1st buildings you'll see on the east side of 270.

 

Lmao ummm seems to be a lil problemo with hrs there, Can't your DM do basic math?

That Sucks!! I had forgotten that most Trucks for Transam are Auto's weird!!

I would be looking for a TK fast, today here it was Hawt!

 

I guess that I am going to be allowed to pick it up late.
I am about 15 miles from the pickup location, and I will be picking it up after 0100 est tonight.
My DM wants me to swap the load out at the Petro outside of Rochester, even though I told him that I will have to stop at the Pembroke TA around noon tomorrow. So who knows what will happen. Makes no sense to me.

 

Dang guys, just typed up a long note about my mistrials today and just realized I posted it in the Central thread. Grrrrrrr. Think I may be suffering a case of HUA at the moment. lol

 

Lol I went over there and read it!!

GUESSSSSSSSSSSS WHAT

I will probably be back on the road on the weekend a few days earlier then I thought sooooooooooo YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY:smt079
