It all went well at the Garner NC delivery. 15:30 appt, rolling out empty just past 16:00. Next load does indeed p/u in Goldsboro headed for Springfield. Fargo pulled a rabbit out of their hat this pay cycle. Even with the couple days sitting over the holiday waiting to deliver, once I am empty in Springfield, I will have 5400+ miles on this check, sooo...it wasn't my usual disaster of a week.

I decided to detour to Kenly before picking up in Goldsboro. I needed laundry done, and was tired of taking whorebaths. Has anyone seen what they're doing to the Kenly Petro (which use to be a T/A the last time I was thru this area)? Major building expansion going on. It's looking like the Iowa80 folks are trying to make it an east coast version of the Walcott building.

 

SSB, have you already picked up at Mission? If not, when you leave I'd suggest that you take US70 to I795 and run I795 up to 264 and then hit I540 around Raleigh and that way you can avoid construction and the other Raleigh BS.

 

I pick up this afternoon. I didn't want to head in too early to pu. The last time I picked up there I wasted a bunch of my 14 waiting for my appointment, then didn't get to a dock until well after it was suppose to be loaded. I have a 1500 tomorrow in Springfield. Which is an eternity compared to how hard I have been pushing lately

 

Doesn't they have some young talent coming up?

Gotta get some fans in the new playpen next year

 

Look at U go, musta handed off the xxxx list to Tucker and now Ur racking em up

 

I second that suggestion xeres69 gave you. If your appt is for 1300 you will be loaded and hitting Raleigh at rush hr. That 70e to I795 to 264 to 64bypass to 540 towards the airport is much better. All the traffic will be headed the other way. You may hit some between the airport and Chapel Hill but you would hit that anyways going 70 to 40. It's a few miles longer but it's almost all divided hwy or interstate with no traffic lights..

And smart move not going to Mission too early. I HAVE been loaded early there.... But it's so rare it doesn't pay to risk the clock. We used to deliver next door at Pate Dawson a lot when they had the Bojangles acct. (Mclanes in Concord NC has that now) I would driver at 4-5 am, pull out to that cul D sac get a few winks, go check in at Mission and wait it out... Cause you didn't need to start the clock....

 

If you work for Creffer, everyone is on the #### list because it's a #### company

 

I wish. I'm moving and it sucks.

 

Been there and yes it does, enjoy a cold one and some ribs when you're done, that'll help!

 

I did smoke a Boston butt and grilled some burgers yesterday. No cold ones yet.
