Let's All Be Careful Out There

Alright yall happy fourth of July weekend. I'll be out on the road working tomorrow and Monday I'm working on making a few bucks and money isn't made by sitting at home so I'm having a nice 1 day weekend.

If any of you guys are out trucking tomorrow be sure to wave! I've got an Internal Transfer run tomorrow to the warehouse early in the morning so if you see me in my GFS volume truck on the Ohio/PA turn pike be sure to wave. I have a regular route on the fourth of July, I want my holiday pay it's good dough. I wasn't going to take off fourth of July I wanted to earn my holiday pay ha-ha!

Anyhow every one who's out working tomorrow or if you have off lets all be careful out there so we can have this conversation again next fourth of July.

 

Well today went off pretty good.
Actually did some internal transit work. Busier out on the road truck wise then I thought. I saw two of our Volume trucks headed to the warehouse when I was on my way back in. I also saw quite a few Anderson DuBoise trucks (McDonalds distributor for Ohio, Western PA and Upstate New York) There based out of Lordstown, Ohio I saw a good amount of there trucks. On my way back to Cleveland I was passed by two of there units both headed into Cleveland to run routes, there trucks are faster then our GFS trucks. Also saw some ABF Doubles and Landstar pulling a set of ABF pups and Schneider pulling a set of YRC pups.


Anyhow that's me out in Pennsylvania today at central command getting ready to come back home. I have a pretty sharp looking trailer don't I?

There were a handful of police out and I saw two motor carrier enforcers out. When I was coming back in from Pennsylvania there was a motor carrier officer waiting at the toll both. There was a light brown Volvo sleeper cab truck behind me and the officer popped him I saw the red lights (Ohio Highway Patrol Motor Carrier uses solid red light bars) and pulled him over into the turnpike service plaza. I didn't want them to pull me over and they let me go. I think it was because of my shiny clean trailer ha-ha.
