    While at the shop I got to meet up with @Bumper ! Great guy! We joke around with safety a little while they work out some kinks with the e-logs, grab a quick breakfast off the morning roach coach :biggrin_25523: and off to Ogden picked up my load to Kenosha WI. #### busy day!

    Currently in Laramie Wyoming heading on out .

    Roll on!

    Back at ya buddy! I spent my birthday in the yard. Didn’t get a load until 1500 but i did manage to get a few minor issues with my truck resolved. Got a Dannon load to Costco Sumner Washington. Delivers Sunday at 0800 and then the rest of the day off. I guess things are quiet up there. No matter I’m still getting paid!! :)

    Newer trucks don't have any. Older trucks on freightliner is the On Guard System. Volvo's not sure about them.

    What'sup happy Monday! Made delivery last night in Kenosha and waiting on next assignment. Had few snags along the way. First morning starting out on this trip during my pre trip inspection discovered a very low air in one of the drive tire's. Fortunately was parked at a petro and maintenance just had me go to the shop and get it looked at. Not sure the cause ended up just being low on air. :dontknow:

    Next day stop for a break and the Elog went wakey and threw me on drive line for the last 20 hrs. @Bumper had this happened to him the other day so not a big deal because of his experience i knew just call safety and they got it fix by the end of the day. Some weird glitch in the system that does this to a few trucks every day. No figure!

    Trucking on

    How's the current pay scale?
    How do they get drivers to orientation?
