Millis OTR journal

We are heading down to Orlando with a Best Buy load. It will be 80 and sunny. Sometimes it’s good to be down south.

 

You guys down south can go to hell lol. I was down there just a few wks ago and there was snow on the ground there! Honestly can't complain much. Dec 24 wss 1st snowfall at my house, and it made my 5yr olds beyond happy....so happy that we'd just got them dressed and ready to go to family dinner on Xmas eve and I told them to get in my car I had to grab something from the kitchen.....and as i walk outside low and behold my 2 kids aren't in the car cuz they are busy doing snow angels in their dress clothes.....all i could do was laugh

 

Hope you get fn sun burnt lmao

 

Lmao. We brought the sunscreen. It’s one of the few times a year I don’t mind going to Fla. Ten months out of the year it’s too hot for sure.

 

@keen98 @Steelersjunkie how does millis react if you need to take an extra day or two off because of all the crazy snow, and they have empty commercial vehicle restrictions on I 90.. trying to figure out tommarow..

SupposeSupposed to be another 5 - 10 inches tonight and 1 to 2 ft south of me.

 

I cant imagine there would be any issues as long as you keep dispatch updated on whats going on. Especially this week as I doubt freight is bursting down the doors all wk

 

True, that's what my husband was thunking.. since he d oesnt have a load yet.. he just wants to make sure he doesn't get in trouble.. since he had to take today off with all the crazy snow.

 

Millis knows where hes located and can see the forecast they arent going to make him go out in that. If it were me I'd call dispatch and tell them I'll talk to them whenever it quits snowing, and I'd bout bet you they'd say ok sounds good.

 

The time it takes is the time it takes, you got/are getting hammered. I am sure the mother ship would be much happier with that truck sitting as opposed to totalled in a ditch after a bad accident, not to mention any injuries to your husband and anyone else. I know I would

I would do like @keen98 suggested, call dispatch and tell them as soon as things calm down and you feel it's safe to get out of your area you will but at the moment just can't be sure how long that will take.

We can control a lot, but we can't control the weather.
