Millis OTR journal

Glad to hear man. Told ya to call it wouldn't take long lol. Bill the instructor in Trenton is as good as it gets. Been with Millis for awhile and if you listen to him you'll do just fine. Again feel free to ask any questions that pop into your head.

 

Thanks man, much appreciated! Peggi said the same about Bill in Trenton. Can't wait to get there and get this thing going. I will indeed pry your ear as questions come up.

 

I will be in that class as well. See you there.

 

Ha ha ha

 

Cool, see you there!

 

Ever had one of those days where you were just a bundle nerves? I don’t know why, everything is going good in life for me.
Had one yesterday in St Louis. Delivering off I-64 W at Skinker Ave. Yes, Skinker. Comin in from I-70 W out of E St Louis, my brain froze. I ended up going out 70 before realizing I messed up. Found and exit to flip around on. Ended up in 55 S and found another place tp flip around. I said to myself f it, I’m goin out 64E and flip around again. I swear y’all, I felt like the biggest dumbarse in the US.
Finally got to 64W and exited at 34A, Skinker Ave. All through college/residential/park areas with lanes wide enough to make your butt draw up. Finally got to my Left turn to final and it was dead end. Looked nothing like pics on Google. Thank goodness there was a turn lane cause I locked this ##### down and called the final whilst I sat in the street.
Final guy was cool, he’d been through this before. His words were, turn left in, hug the right side of the building and then aim the truck at the dumpster across the street. This will set you up for the blind side back. Uhggggggg,
My brain was fried at that point but I held it together. I mean, whatcha gonna do? Ya gotta make it happen.
BTW, it was Fritz Bottling. Don’t normally disclose deliver places but these guys are worth mentioning. Super nice peeps and fast to unload.
Oh yeah, you can park overnight at the end of the one way street,,,,,,, if you dare.

 

Don't feel to bad man, the last time I had to go thru KC the brain damage was like that. Missed a split off and ended up doing a circle around the whole F'in city before I found myself again.... and that was with 2 GPSs running

 

I deliver local and I have been to this place hundreds of times and I was cruisin down the interstate one day and blew right past my exit, talk about a real dumb #####move, at least you were going somewhere you don’t go to all the time, we all have those days.
