    You're SOL on any expense past 15 days. Or so my DBL says.

    That's why I'm so quick on the phone when I suspect a shortage.

    Well, like I said, I've asked about it pretty much every week since. Obviously I've been blown off on the issue. I'm going to have to go to management.

    My old DBL (never got along with him) said when I was laid over for 36 hours that he would only reimburse for the hotel OR would give me layover pay. Since the hotel was more I opted to get reimbursed for the hotel.

    Well, they changed my DBL shortly thereafter, and I asked about it with my new DBL a few times. Then after a while she told me that they won't reimburse for a hotel when laid over. She said that she'd just have me paid discretionary.

    So basically, I'm not SOL because I've asked them 14 times about it and I keep getting blown off. Maybe they think I'll just give up, but when I'm back in the office next week they'll know what I think.

    When it comes to my money, I take it very personal.

    I still don't understand why these people schedule live unloads for the middle of the night at places that don't allow overnight parking. It's simply ridiculous. They say there's a truckstop in the area, but it's not even that big of a truck stop and do they really think you're going to find parking there at 2am? And to top it off the place I'm going to has a huge yard.

    They got a big "impossible dispatch" from me today for that very reason. ZERO parking by law, within 2 hours of customer. I will run out of my 14 at customer.

    Not gonna happen.

    Sitting at the OC in French Camp. 60 miles from my delivery that's at 1800 tomorrow. I already did a 34 hour restart in Weed California. Now I get to sit here.... Tried calling support shift to see about setting up a relay a couple of times but get I get bored while on hold and end up hanging up. Oh well, still got in 2413 miles this week. Supposed to be back up in Portland to start some tah on Tuesday but I don't know how that's gonna go.

    I guess I'll take advantage of the WiFi and download some movies.

    Just some friendly advice.

    If you come by my truck at 6:30 in the morning, after watching me pull in. Then find out I'd driven all night.

    NO!!!! It's not okay if you knock on my door at 10 to see if I wanna go in and watch TV.

    Where are we getting these people from?
