The story of my adventure

I think the more of us who post about our time as noobs the more enlightened others will be.

Right now we are sitting on a preset the dm says 17:00 today and the shipper says 7:00 tomorrow. In the meantime my trainer sits not making money and I am not getting the 17,000 miles I need on this truck to upgrade.

It's not all wine and rose, but not all gloom and doom either. Patience is a necessary tool out here.

I sat in a truck stop last night watching humanity and thought a truckers version of Da Walmart* . .. though I did get some free sausage at the petro early this morning.

 

My stomach is well protected from all the vinager based bbq sauce I consume.. but I do need to make sure I don't add extra weight to my trainers already heavy truck. Hahaha

We are sitting at a Walmart and all my food is healty stuff. all I will do at the truck stops is replenish my stock of life water and shower..

 

It's our next load. We were supposed to just pick it up and be gone. We were"preset" to pick it before we dropped our previous load.

Shipper got ahead of themselves.. now we are heading west.
Going stop in an hour or so to shower, fuel and switch drivers. I get to drive the next 600 miles.

Sleeping in a moving truck isn't too bad, but I could sleep in a moving ambulance.

Be a computer geek he gets on my nerves when I am using the Qualcomm. I am already 4 steps ahead of him when he's meticiously explaining what to enter on the first step. I just nod and smile..

He half deaf so I don't know if he's ignoring me or can't hear me.

Little quirks of sharing a small box.
