    Do we still haul ice cream out of Henderson? They pulled me off of the SLC load finally, but if they had a preloaded ice cream load, I could hook to it after my delivery and roll an hour or two before my driving coach turned into a 10 hr pumpkin.

    Well, my split log got screwed up. (And I slightly miscalculated how much time it was gonna take me to get to my parking spot), so, once I hit my 8 and I realized I wouldn't have enough time to make my appointment, I messaged dispatch to see if they could see if we could push out my appointment so I could put in a full break. I am not sure what is going on with me. Since coming back, I am out of sync. I am usually almost OCD about planning and being organized. But since coming back I am acting more like a seat warming rookie. I really wish I would snap out of it.

    It’s called Mega-Fog. Watch out or it will cause permanent damage… you’ll soon buy flip flops and wear socks with them…

    And here I thought it was vapor lock from a brain fart...learn something new every day...hope they go with black socks. Since my open deck duty, I only wear black socks since that's what color they end up as anyway.

    They unloaded me is a hurry, even though I was late. Received my next load after some appointment adjustments. You see, PTA's mean absolutely nothing to Lincoln. I started my day at 02:10, had a PTA for 06:00 tomorrow (because I am in an extremely foul mood after dealing with this truck's ######## in Commiefornia with their 55 mph speed limit, and the barrage of screwed up loads). They wanted me to pick up this evening, well after my 14 ended. Then they got it rescheduled for 0700 tomorrow, but didn't reschedule the delivery in Farr West, UT. It currently delivers 01:00 Thursday, but the reviews say the shipper is one of those "bring lunch....and dinner" shippers. If it takes very long to load me then I won't be able to make it up there and get any kind of split break in. This is getting monotonous...I wonder if it's too late to switch to Hunt...:biggrin_25512:

    Is there any way to stop getting the weather messages on the Peoplenet? Since we can't push the play button on the message pop-up and hear the message, it's #### annoying to get a message, then pull over to find out if it's important only to find out that it was a message warning you for a weather event from 40 miles ago. And why the heck didn't they make it so you can one touch the play button on the screen and at least hear what your messages are so you know if you need to stop and answer something, like the old Peoplenet brick displays used to be.

    I would just keep driving and wait till I had to make a stop to check the message. If they were that important they would make it where you can play them
