I used to stay out 5-7 weeks a time with CRE. That was the only way to cover expenses and get a payday in the positive . That was training new drivers too, you'd think I was rolling the dough with 5000 miles a week , but I actually had to PAY the student as an employee of my truck. If it worked like everywhere else , I would have done well.
I enjoy my home time though. I don't always feel like my batteries are recharged after 3 days off , but I enjoy it. I was out 4 weeks, so I'm going to take 4 days off, return on the 5th day. Tuesday next week.
I'll enjoy today by trying to relax after a shower. So wish I could up and head to the house, but, can't afford to run home just for a day.

Wow. Paying a trainee as an employee; that is certainly something I would never do.
Wickedfire77 Thanks this. -
I dropped at Meijer, the lot was a skating rink, took me a wheel to get distance between me and that trailer. I would have felt defeated if I chained up in a drop lot.
So after that I headed to the J.
I called a local friend and we went to see the latest Hobbit movie and had dinner . Bsed a while and had a laugh. Nice day to unwind.
Now I'm off to bed to see what adventure lies in wait.OPUS 7 Thanks this. -

Be there at. 8am they said. Should get you loaded right away they said.
This place has 4 trucks ahead of me, and is not caught up on product.
In the nicest way possible they said "it'll be awhile ".
After x amount of time away from home, I begin to lose my ability to stay objective and positive at the same time.
I'm in dire need of a recharge. It needs to get warm so I can go fishing.double yellow Thanks this. -

And here, too. The neighborhood school bus goes very slow, much slower than normal, down the street.

Wicked, I see you posting a good bit about drops in Alabama. You don't go to the drum place in Cullman by chance? The company I'm leased to pulls out of there. About 30-40 loads a week. Wish you continued success, and GO home. Get out of the truck and re- align your thinking. Have a good evening.
