Running with JCT, Part Deux

So, I had preplan yesterday going from Tolleson, Az to the Chicago area. Not my favorite area, but hey, it keeps me moving. I'm sitting here at the consignee in Phoenix and I get another preplan. This time picking up in Casa Grande. So, I call to figure out which preplan is the correct one. Turns out the first one cancelled and no one told. Which is fine by me.

 

Did you win @Steel Tiger ? You know people who put in their notices seem to be winners

 

I always find it funny to run into former JCT drivers. So talk #### because they left on bad terms and others don't because they left on good terms. Bit what I find funny is when they is such and such person still there? I'm like I don't know. I only really know one person at the home office. Then they ask how I could have been here for over 3 years and not really know the home office people. To which I reply with I spend my time on the road making me and JCT money instead of sitting at the yard with my nose up everyone's ### all day. Some walk away and others are like fair enough.

 

Ahh yes I have had a few of those. I also have the ones that say I never made o we 500 bucks a week. I say then you were doing something wrong. I also only know like 3 people at he yard. My diapatcher and my former dispatcher that is now a planner i think. And keith cause well he always ask me to help out lol.

 

Yep. I know off several people at the yard, but only one I actually know and that's my DM.

The one I talked today had nothing bad to say. He just left for a better gig.

 

I know what you mean. I felt bad when people walk up saying they are former JCT driver and rattle off multiple names of office people I never heard of. Almost like I'm a bad JCT driver for not knowing everyone in the office.

 

Come on driver. Don't you know that not only are you suppose to do your.job, but you have to know everyone at the home office plus their life stories.

 

Honestly I like to see how long I can go before I go to the yard. I get all my PM done when I'm on home time and try to get them to email me all the new licenses etc. Last year I made it 7 months. I am currently at 6 fingers crossed I make a year lol.

 

Nope. I didn't get squat. I worked all 5 days. This is BS. I'm turning in my truck tomorrow.


Wait......i was already turning it in. My bad.

 

My truck just went down in Salt Lake possible wire harness the way multiple sensors are showing bad.
