    You probably had that stray dog that was hanging around the parking lot yesterday. You were to preoccupied with the server to notice. :biggrin_25523:

    Well my miles have been pretty crappy the last few weeks. Not sure whats up with this outfit. I was supposed to get a load to California out of
    Houston today. That disappears into thin air.
    Then they send me to get a preload that goes to
    Ohio on Monday. It aint preloaded and I have sat
    here 11 hrs and still not ready to go. When I get back to the yrd I am going to take some extra time
    off to take care of personal business. This is not
    my kind of way to operate. I had enough of the BS
    with Heartland Express.

    Sorry to hear about that airbreeze....

    I am sitting outside houston right now will deliver in the morning...

    since coming back from hometime monday i have 2715 miles and 2 days left on the pay week...however i only have 18 hrs left on my 70 and nothing dropping off until tuesday so more than likely i will be taking a reset sunday...

    i know scooter got where you are wednesday and his load wasnt ready so they gave him a load going to california that was preloaded...the shipper has been running behind this week after the holiday.

    i am certain everything will get sorted out you will be back to normal again. Sitting is not the norm here.

    be safe...

    Its 0100am here. I just checked with the shipping office here and the load aint ready yet. I checked in here at 1045am yesterday. If I had known this was going to happen I would have went to a better
    place to sit till the load was ready. They have been
    doing this to me quite a bit lately. Tell me to run a short load, then they promise me my next load will be a good one. Then they give me this kind of load
    but never say why I did not get the load they said I would get. This one has three stops in Ohio. Canton,Cleveland and East Lake. Was supposed to deliver on Monday but that aint going to happen now unless they want it on monday night
    So this kills another check for me. Thats 3 in a row now. I told them just get me back to TN, after
    this load. Might as well go get some things taken
    care of I have been putting off for awhile.

    Well, with ownership like that, no male driver will ever want to leave the yard!
