Plus One

Yep unfortunately I didn't get the message before going in for breakfast and when trying to pay for the meal, comdata no go. Just got back from washing all the dishes and licking the waitresses shoes for 2 hours.

 

Oh noes was gonna go down to Wally world and get Student Barney Sheets for his bunk......

 

Omg, that made me laugh.. im gonna do that when I mentor...

Is laughing..

 

Yup no comdata at all, lucky for me I mugged the guy that asks to clean yer rims @ the last truckstop, least I can buy a chicken wing, put a quarter in a gumball machine for desert... mmm we eatting gooood tonight.

 

Put a giant spider in his bunk with a string.. that way when he or she lays down at night drop it down on him..... I feel sorry for my students..... poor souls....... Move the truck when they go into take a shower and don't answer your phone..... hehe

 

They have to be bleached and starched white sheets, Arizona and some other states are starting to crack down.

 

haha a ticket from DOT for Barney sheets.. Oh well student gets ticket

 

Oh, so we're pulling that old fable out of the archives again, eh?

 

Just thought I would bring this up again, since Plus-1 seems not to be getting any better.

I had to bring my truck in for a 90 day inspection, no big deal.

So this afternoon I get 2 pplans back to back.
The first is picking up nearly 200 miles away to deliver the next morning at 0830 - a live unload by the way - around 160 miles away.
I had no mt yet, so I had to figure in the time to aquire an mt as well.

The second was picking up 30 miles away from the first delivery, at 0900.

Long story short, I would be at least 1/2 hour late to the first delivery - considering the time I was given the plan.

And how do I get 30 miles away in 30 minutes from when I deliver a live unload?
???

So now I have yet another 2 refused loads, when both were clearly impossible from the outset.


My current load had an initial delivery time of 1430, which I could not do.
I refused and put in a delivery of 2000, which was kicked right back to me as OK - so I took it.
It's a Walmart load going to a DC, and the window is 'till 2359.

But that is another refused load under this Plus-1 system, even though I took it with the revised times.


I'm sure my DM is going to be all over me for a 75% refusal rate next month. I also had 3 refusals in Salt Lake when they sent me 3 pplans to Denver - 530 miles away - when I only had 7.25 hours left on my 70 and no hours coming in the next day. (actually, one of them was a day later when I would have had some hours coming in. But I would have had to run the entire distance straight through, with no breaks or meals.)


It's like a new game I play, this Plus-1 thing.
How many loads can I both refuse and accept, while making sure I have enough time to actually do them safely!

 

do you try to open up the hours some with the mac 9? that works alot for a few extra hrs,but this system bites,and is aggravating me to no end! Ay,Ay!
