Location for the night

50 bucks a mile in NYC traffic would still probably be less than minimum wage. I've lived within 75 miles of the city for all my 29 years and I'd been there 4 times before I started trucking. Needless to say, I'm not a city person.

 

Yeah that's low. Get with the times Schneider, stop pay within the boroughs should be $100+

 

I just shook my head and said "BS" about 30 times.

When I first started my career in 99, I drove for May Trucking and the 9 months I was there, even though I was a horrible truck driver at that point, I have yet to be as good at backing as I was working for them. I went to the most horrible warehouses, the busiest docks, the weirdest little places like yours. Then I went to other carriers where they were more choosy with their freight and my skills have never been the same.
In my current truck and even with a tank, instead of a van, I don't think I could get it in there. Hell, I can't hardly back into a spot by myself lol

Really makes you wonder if anyone even bothers to check Google Earth before signing on a new customer.

 

I don't think they really care... As long as they're making money they care less they're not the ones that have to deal with the hassle...

 

But the receiving clerk on the phone said there's plenty of room...... FOR BREAD TRUCKS

 

Kenton. Pretty much a do nothing day. I ran 215 miles this morning then got a PM and the truck was turned up. That took over 5 hours.

 

Exit 288 I40 TN.. creepy mom and pop T/S. Headed to Statesville, Nc., then I'm going home for a couple of days. Have to go to my part time job this weekend.

 

I'm in Dallas TX. Parked right at the delivery! God I love paper logs!!!!! I should have killed "JILL" long ago.

Be Safe Out There
