Millis OTR journal

So I took a Menards load from Shelby to Dubuque today and guess what my reload is? You guessed it. City Brewing, La Crosse, Wisconsin. Unfortunately for me, I've got home time coming up Thursday that can not be canceled, so I'm gonna be dropping this puppy in Richfield for some other lucky ####### to finish out.

Go figure.

Yes. I'm parked across the dang street.

 

The part of it I've run has been from La Crosse to Memphis and back. I really liked that run.

I thought this one was going to Memphis, too, but I l ooked at the final info on the QC and it's going to Rochester.

I will say that little drive up US 61 was nice, though.

 

Hahaha sounds like your lucky day!! I've managed to avoid Wayne Madison for awhile now and believe me I dont mind! (Guaranteed next load I get is to or from fn Wayne Madison now) lmao Im good with not seeing it again till we have our lot back to ourselves again, but Im sure the construction will take a bit of time.

 

All these companies are always looking for efficiencies and ways to save time and money but seem to put zero thought into things like and easy ingress / egress, dock areas, drop lots etc... which would make the delivery / pick up process quicker and easier and maybe a bit cheaper in the long run if drivers weren't wasting so much time with their BS facilities.

 

Ironically is that when I looked at the drop yard at Cedar Springs, I noticed how one side was all nice and orderly and straight and the other side wasn't. I get there and I learn that the nice and straight side is where the loaded trailers were. So I guess the spotter or spotters there are a little more OCD about it.
