    I wouldn't be complaining either. Sounds like a great place to settle in and think long term employment.

    Been on the road a month to catch up on some bills. (Recovering from my stint at Beacon) The way the payroll fell I'll have 2130 miles for this week and 4080 for next week. I'll be feeling like a Rockefeller next week!!

    Didn't get but 1160 miles on this week's check. Got held up at the shipper so 1350 miles will go on next week's check. It sucks but it happens. One huge check then one not so great. But it all averages out pretty well.
     
    Lonesome and harpole83 Thank this.

    My truck was having emissions problems and was doing low temp regens. Took it to the Freightliner dealer. they kept it 2 days and said it was fixed. Started driving again and drove 100 miles and it started doing the same thing. Took it to another Freightliner dealer they say it's fixed we shall see. Been broke down since Friday. Thankfully they paid for my hotel and pay me every day for breakdown pay. Had two loads going to Texas and lost both of them because of the truck. But I have one from Wisconsin to Louisiana now so I guess that's the next best thing.

    Pretty decent week. 2700 miles with pretty fast load times. Been out for about 3 weeks so I'm headed home with a drop and hook from Kenosha down to Charlotte.

    I work here at SAV too and I don't know what happened to the miles, I started November 2016 just before thanksgiving and I was getting great miles now it's downhill with a few hits here and there. Like I just had this load from Minnesota from the yard to grantsville Utah and then grantsville back to Minnesota. But ever since Parker left they messed with something, chris my dispatch isn't organized nor does he follow up with me much. I've never heard of the owner or met him. Which is very odd. I was the only one in orientation. Smurf you got a email or something I can contact you? I haven't been on here long enough to get messages.

    Had a short week this go round due to court all week. Didn't get to leave out until Monday after lunch. But we'll still have around 1900.
