Running with JCT, Part Deux

I can hardly wait. Whats wrong with those ones?

 

Well lets see....

broken bow... middle of nowhere. Good luck getting the gps to find the address. I resorted to routing to the nearest intersection. All loads are live and I have yet to wait less than 12 hours to get in a dock. 33 hours is my record turn around. Home of the Flies in summer. All is not lost though. Onsite diy washout. Casino truckstop 4 miles north. Nice enough people if you dont piss them off.

Center Texas... bfe. No 4g wifi coverage. No parking at walmart. Closest offsite parking is 15 miles away on the LA line. Take advantage of that, the stop has a 24 hour whataburger. Usually your load will be half ready and go 5-10 hours past your drop dead. Record wait 30 hours. On the plus... onsite scale, nice people, if your load goes west fuel in terrell tx i20 exit 501 currently 2.29 at the QT.

Henderson Ark.... I think location jand picks security based on nasty attitude. I haven't felt the urge to slap a woman many times since my divorce but have felt it creeping up every time ive been here. Closest scale in fort smith.

 

Wow i sure do appreciate the heads up on those! I had a 24 hour window today at Rogers but i was out in 3 hours. I was figuring on being there till tonorrow morning.

 

Roundy's in Oconomowoc, WI charges $560 for the lumper fee!!!! WTH!!!! If i was already sitting in my chair, I would have fallen over. I bet JCT is going W....T.....F!!!!

 

Roundys sucks. Their receiving procedure appears to be created to cause the most confusion possible.

 

Turns out that the shipper used the wrong pallets. And come to find out that they have a habit of using the wrong pallets.

 

Picking up in yuba city california for gerber in ft smith. Im done with jct as soon as I can build enough of a nest egg.

When a load requires me to do a 50-75 gallon hop for 1800 miles its a load that should get an automatic premium to cover the hit to my pocket from extra fuel costs.

JCT isnt affected in the least by my extra operating cost so they could care less. What makes it worse is I'm rolling with an "I" trailer that weighs about 1500lbs more than anything else and has zero aero aids.

 

Going to pick up in Green Bay at Swift going to Little Rock then over to Enid, Ok

 

Good thing I live about 2 miles from Tyson in Rogers ☺

 

Can anyone tell me if the blue beacon washouts go on your trip envelope under expenses and advance. And do you have to turn the receipt in?
