    The DFW area is under a winter storm warning until 6pm tomorrow. 1-3" of snow and sleet and up to 1/10" of ice. Thankfully I won't be going thru there until Friday afternoon or Saturday morning. Highs on Friday are suppose to be above freezing for a little while.
     
    Lonesome Thanks this.

    We had a bunch of loads cancel because of the expected ice storms in Kentucky and Michigan so my boss sent me home yesterday. I did not complain about five days off and loaded up my stuff and got the heck out of there while it was still dry! Heading back up on Sunday afternoon. Hopefully it will be done by then.
     
    Lonesome, Winnyf1 and JohnBoy Thank this.

    Got another 'b/l unreadable' message this morning. I have been using this phone since before my time off for the wife's surgery, and now all of a sudden they can't read my bills. Guess they're gonna have to get use to paying extra for truckstop scanning then, but that's the cost of doing business...not sure what changed. Nothing on my end has. They're app hasn't been updated recently, and things were readable even after the latest update. And my phone's camera can capture the fine hair on a frogs ###...so it isn't my equipment. They need to switch to Omnitracs instead of Peoplenet...those units have a usb port that can use a normal printer, then we could scan right from the truck and not have to deal with apps.

    Just recently Cardinal has begun having us submit photos of our Bills too. Our handheld Zebra units have a built in camera so its an easy operation. So far no one has complained about my photographic skills or lack there of.....

    Im probably the one around who could care less about the camera in his cell phone.
