Running with JCT, Part Deux

Delivering into Edwardsville, KS this afternoon with a follow-up preplan picking up in Olathe, KS headed back to SoCA. Hoping to make it a quick turn around and beat some of this nastiness headed through here. Going to wave at Sharpp's front bumper if it's still located in a field off of 54 headed back west...lol.

In another note, a friend of mine is on Greyhound at the moment, joining the JCT family and the ever-growing orientation class on Monday. He put up with wayyyyy more krapp than I would have ever dreamed of at our last company, and is ready to move to the greener pastures of JCT. I'm sure he'll do well....hard worker that he is who loves to run.

Anyhoo....stay safe all!

 

Hello all. Been awhile since I've checked in. Delivered last Sunday north of Tulsa, then rented a car from Sapulpa to drive home and spend time with the wife on Monday and Tuesday then an overnight sprint back to the yard to get ready for the Oklahoma state safety awards banquet where I received my million mile award. Now I'm just east of Denver at the loves on my way to Tulautin (Portland area) Oregon.

 

Good deal Treputt! My buddy is delivering his first jct load today or tomorrow. He dealt with 5 weeks of nonsense at our last company, I could onlyhandle three.

 

Well off to Forest, MS to pick up everyones favorite chicken comp. Then load is supposed to go all the way to Cali with 2 drops. They are trying to find me a swap so my happy ### can go home for once. LoL
Y'all don't have to much fun out there.

 

Well what'ya know. Settlements told me I could use Transflo too for scanning. Awesomesauce!

 

So, I take it that JCT uses both TripPak scanning and Transflo?

 

Yep. I just found out about Transflo today. Either way, costs ya $12 each trip scanned. I will just drop in the Trippak box unless I am in a hurry to get it in.

 

Dropped WalMart load from Bradenton FL to Cleburne TX in the Ft Worth drop yard last night. Got a load picking up in Nashville AR to Ponca City OK that was supposed to pick up at 22:00 tonight. Got to the J on I30 ex 7 in Arkansas, 51 miles away from pickup. Grabbed a shower and as soon as I got out, got a call that customer wanted their product tomorrow (Sat) before 10am rather than Sunday at 07:00. Left the J with 6:30 on the clock. Now at Tyson waiting for a door.

Will deliver early, then bounce on down to the yard to see about getting egr and ac condenser fixed. Hope it doesnt take long.

 

You have to pay (I guess through settlement deduction) to scan your bills in? I know you have to pay for the TripPak envelope, but for scanning? I have never had to pay for scanning my bills in. That is not going to stop me from coming over to JCT, but I just find it weird that you have to pay to scan your bills in.

On another note: I guess I am going to have to finish the orientation videos at the motel because, for some reason, all they do is buffer, play 3 seconds, buffer, replay same 3 seconds, buffer...........

I ended up having to use Google Chrome to do the modules.
