I actually only get 1 hour sleep by time they start on load I get on unloaded is at 2 am I'm literally sitting 1 block away from the from the actual drop off because they re I was out of hours in there is no other place to park so my hours rephresh this morning and I was ready to go and I'm still sitting here and I'm 4 blocks away from any restaurant closest 1 is arby's .I just happen to know that within 2 miles of here there's a lot of cold freezer storage place either 3 let my truck sat with there are picking up or dropping off what they still can't find a load to get me outta here as of this morning and a new 2 days ago but Iso here's the deal I don't get me outta here by tomorrow I've got my passport in the truck obviously it's not a concern were the truck is parked for them so I'm just gonna go ahead take my my vacation how to jump on a plane outta here go to costa rica so that got a decision to make you to get me outta here at 3 pm tomorrow or I'm park in the truck right where its at and take a pic and I'll see you tuesday morning.so they were aware 2 days ago that I was gonna be ready for Thu morning.

    They should be able to find a load on Friday. Worst thing you can do is leave the truck and do a mini vacation.
