    I just stopped at a rest area and sent my DM a message about dropping this load in Colton. I sent the macro41 yesterday afternoon when I stopped for the day.

    Ok. So dropping this load in Colton was a bust. Apparently, 3.5 hrs of drive time (when I got there) is not enough to let me drop. No biggie. Truck is due for PM so I am parked at the TA in Coachella, CA for the PM. I know that the twin TA's in Ontario are closer to the receiver, but I refuse to stop there if I can help it. They charge for parking and nothing but trouble over there anyway.

    On the other hand, if there are no local drivers in Riverside, who would want to take a load 15 miles to delivery? A swap several hundred miles away might have worked.

    Nope, still sitting here in Memphis, unload appt is 9 pm tonight. Unloaded at this Maines last week and was not unloaded till like 7 hrs after appt. Will hopefully be home by 4 am tomorrow.

    Still waiting for answer from JCT about why could not change appointment. Also contacted the retention lady to voice my frustration.

    On another note, never got the $100 promised by Keith for repowering a load in Dallas last week and delivering it for someone. Waiting for answer on this issue too, seems no one at JCT like to answer anything.

    Tried that route. That feel through. No worries though. This is 1300 miles towards the paycheck two weeks from now. I was mainly trying to be greedy and get it on next weeks paycheck. But, like I said, truck needed a PM anyway and might as well do it when I have all day to sit today.

    Be sure to reject any 34hr restarts that might show up on your Qualcomm that way you can get a legal restart and a fresh 70 when you come out of hometime.

    You still haven't come off Keith's board? I have been off his board for a week now. Chad is working out so far. I told him today that I need to be worked back towards Sapulpa in the next week or so to get the other maintenance done on my truck. It is just about due for the overhead and coolant flush.
     
    Jarhed1964 Thanks this.

    I came off Keith's board the same day you did, I have Jeremy as DM now. He tries to get answers from people for me but no one responds to him I guess. It's just frustrating to not get any answers.

    Next time for hometime if get this load again, I am turning it down unless get reasonable delivery time so not sitting for 36 hrs.
