    Hmmm sounds like one of our contracts.
    Did not see a bunch of Heartland trailers there did you?
    I do not know how much we are brokering out right now, but I know in some area's it is a good bit.
    We are low on drivers and have allot of freight in many regions.
    In OH region we are like 80 drivers lower than we need to be.

    I will should be in GA tomorrow.
    I am headed to Lee FL on I-75, barely in the state.
    May make it to the Atlanta area tomorrow, have not really worked out the miles yet. I am in WV for the night on Rt 19. At Mount Nebo.
    I will be jumping on 85 and headed over to 75. So I will be in your area, just not sure when I will get to that area. Or how far I can make it.
    I figure I am 750 miles out right now, so I will try and do 600 miles tomorrow. So I should make it to Macon by the time I have to shut down.....
    Sorry I am checking my miles and route as I type lol. Yup, looks like Macon area or so by 1700 or so tomorrow.

    Yesterday and today were another pain.
    I went to my truck at 1700 yesterday, so I could get to receiver early and get my break in at a good time.
    Got to my truck and I had a flat drive tire, pulled to the air pump to air up and it came off the bead before I got to it.
    So had to drive to Erie for repair.
    Now I deliver right at 2300. So could not leave till 0915. But they had refused 5 pallets of product. So I had to bring that to UPS freight to get it shipped back.
    Now I finally get loaded at 1200. Rain got bad here so I stopped early, have an easy 2 days to deliver at 1400 Thursday.
     
    The Challenger Thanks this.
