Im sure this was none of you guys here so I figured I'd give you guys a heads up. Apparently we have at least 1 cowardly lil punk ### ##### driver at Millis who thinks its ok to call in on other Millis drivers. Unfortunately my student didnt get his truck #. Just be careful what you're doing when other Millis drivers are around because for some reason there is at least 1 who thinks its his duty to be a tattletale lil #####.

My 2nd student yday was up between Racine and Kenosha in the construction zone. Its a 60mph zone trucks use left lane area. Well he came up on another Millis driver running 53 thru there so he passed him at 58 in the right lane.

Apparently that hurt that drivers feelings because he in turn called safety and told Mark he was doing the speed limit and my student passed him in the right lane...so my student in turn got 1 of those pointless msgs today about it.

Give me a fn break.

 

53 is the new 60 or something like that.

 

Well I’m here about 15 miles or so from Rochester and C&D Leach camped out for the night. They stop receiving at 1500 and I would been there about 1515. Gee thanks MidWest Whse.
Getting in there doesn’t look too bad except for the 12’8” bridge CD Leach said I could clear, we’ll see. Lol,,,,

 

Wouldn’t have been 8055 would it?

 

Completely overlooked it. But stay away from trailer 81640. Frickin pain in the butt to slide tandems. Can only move one hole at a time. The bar notch is worn along with the hole it goes through. Took me 20 mins to move them when I picked it up at shipper. Twice just me getting back in the cab caused it to jump back in. Then at Bud St. Louis’s I got in line then realized I had to slide tandems back. That was some cardio.

 

Do guys just have so much time on their hands??? I rolled in to the truck stop today around 2:30...I'll probably go to bed at 6 to catch up on sleep...just dragging the last few days. Besides grabbing something to eat, I really haven't done anything. The only way I could see myself calling in on a fellow Millis driver is if he did something really boneheaded and almost got me in trouble by doing it. Sometimes passing in the work zone can be pretty boneheaded depending on where it took place, but I'm sure a ton of other trucks were blowing past that guy if he was going 53....I get blown past when I'm doing 60! And still keep rolling over people out here with my 62 governed truck.

 

Did you report it to the shop or whatever? Can't have that crap in the rotation.
