    1790 south 5200 west?

    that's 4.8 miles from me. straight shot up/down 5600 west.
    i'm guessing he'll probably want to park at the facitlity though?

    just let me know. if not. i'll just head on out and get some sleep in afton. be there when they open cuz i'm sure i'm gonna get some arse wipe load that has to run all day and night again. haven't been dispatched yet.

    last i heard there was a load for virginia. or still possibly a sign going to miami

    I am in Carlisle. Headed to VA tomorrow.
    Have to drop a load south of Richmond, then grab another to bring to the terminal there to drop.
    Then I have to turn in my truck, it is up for sale. Have to get a new one.

    i'll tell you what. this is a hard adjustment being without the trailer OR a load, and the truck bouncing all over the road SUCKS.


    the truck has a proportioning brake system. without the trailer the brakes require extrta power and still don't stop. there's a tag on the dash and it isn't lieing about extra pressure may be required.

    had a blowout in wamsutter. that cost me 3 hours. they said 1 hour. i walk in and said it's 2 hours now.

    on another note.
    no more per diem cash advance. people using and need another advance and then complaining no pay checks.
    our pay is also changing from percentage to .35 cents.

    and the truck channel talking about this mexican trucker thing. guess obama lied about adding jobs. he taketh away instead.

    What an intersting drive that was. Am in New Glarus, WI and that SR 39 is a doozy. Kind of curious to see what it looks like in the day time and kind of hope I go back out the same way. Delievered combo loads of pork to the "Jack Links" beef jerky place. Another guy here is delievering turkey. Guess beef aint all they do, eh. lol

    Got routed round about all the way to Richmond VA, just to get a new truck.
    Then I was not on their list when I got there. So they got me added for this afternoon, but my fleet manager and I decided that I would rather run than wait.
    So now I will go and get it next week. No waiting around for me.
    Headed to Carlisle early, then on my way back to Columbus (where I am now).
