    Smokr sorry I missed you today, pulled off the yard at 10am. That is the same dispatcher that yelled at me for bringing a loaded trailer to the yard. I know as I dealt with him this morning to get my load.

    You might want to call or send Smokey Adams (sadams@stevenstransport.com) an email or walk up stairs and talk to him since you will have time to kill, so he knows that the situation has not been corrected. At least the window guy admitted to you he had not read the messages.

    Have fun on the yard, if you can.

    Smokr, I feel for you. When I was on the yard I went into the shop and asked if I could upgrade to a truck with an apu. I wasn't immediately laughed out of the office but it was made crystal clear to me that such a truck was not available. I was told that there were people waiting for trucks and he had to get them into trucks first. He said to come back in a few months when another shipment of new trucks is supposed to arrive.

    Have my new truck assignment. Bleh. KW t2k. Currently number 9051 on Alliance, becoming 10070 for company. Another one-driver leased truck. Lucky on that count I guess. It also being an Alliance truck, has an apu. So, lucky again. But a KW. Ick. Rough riding, bouncy-bouncy mofos. Oh well. At least it's a truck. Problem is, the guy on it doesn't have his new truck yet, so I have to wait for him to get off it, then for the garage to convert it over to company, which usually takes two or three days. Feck and dreck.Though I was told to stay on 10001 for tonight at least. Yay.
    Well, of to Hulu!
    Oh, in case you didn't notice, I went from 10001 to 10070, or, I got ahead by 69...

    A huge number of Pete 387s, and now a bunch of new Kenworth T660s, and they just ordered I believe 500 t700s. There are a smattering of Freighliners as well, all mostly brand new Centuries. But most of their fleet right now are T2ks.
     
    dragonmatrix Thanks this.
