    My wife and I have a thing for cats. She sent me this earlier, and now I'm sharing it with y'all. Enjoy :)

    After today I'll be shocked if he gets a gig bagging groceries. He clearly wasn't needed. He'll look back at this game and regret every decision he made that led to this point. I hope they throw him away. He's a cancer.

    Thanks for the call @BazookaJoe it was great to hear from you :) Sorry for the abbreviated call. It's been a weird day. Had a delivery at 6am and a pickup at 2pm. When I got to my pickup, had a new scenario happen... They told me to drop my trailer, and I had to leave the property! WTH!?! Then they told me it could take up to 4 hours to get loaded, they'd call me when my trailer was ready. So that presented 2 problems I wasn't anticipating. 1, I might run out of hours before the load was ready. 2, I would be late to the delivery if it actually took 4 hours. And as a kicker, it's going to a Walmart DC. Being late is NOT an option with them. And to add to that I have a very sweet and kind woman depending on me to grab a load for her after Walmart. I'd walk through fire for her, and the thought of letting her down was adding to my wired state. So, I needed to blow off some steam and de-stress. Sorry for the long explanation man, I wasn't trying to blow you off. You are more than welcome to call me again tomorrow or any time that suits your needs. As you requested, I had a beer for you. Now, it's my turn lol :biggrin_2559:

    Lol I’m sure it tasted great too, I had a great Mexican dinner last night I had a few. But ok i guess I’ll have to drink one for you now. No twisting my arm :D Been to DC a few times I had easy in and out twice a bear the last time.
    I had to drop a trailer before and wait but not leave the property! That’s crazy. They tell you why?
    Your Flatbed right? I thought you had to have a tractor to load them?

    Just saw 2 loads on my board going from Trenton to Glenwillow with a declared weight of 45,500. There's only one thing that can be. Something going on with Millis and Miller? Are they losing contracts? That's the heavy haul that was (at least at one point) a daily dedicated Ohio regional run. It doesn't state beer, but that's all it can possibly be. Tell you what, if there's a return trip, I'm about to snag that up.

    Sounds like a beer load to me. I don't know if there's something going on between Millis and Miller. I know that I haven't been hauling as much beer as I was back in the summer, but I still get my share of beer loads.

    I thought of you yesterday when I got this load I'm currently under. It goes down your favorite highway to your favorite North Carolina town! I think I'm going to petition the state of Virginia to name US 220 between the end of I-581 and the VA/NC line the "Kudzu Parkway."

    I know they are building the new lot and load output went down
    I was told at one point it went from 565 loads a month to around 100.

    As for the heavy haul “P” no names here has that job and there’s a list a mile long to snag it when he retires. Not sure why that load be brokered
    Millis has to have drivers sitting especially regional and local
    Trenton’s lot is half empty since the lot build
