    you did real good
    you will find the sitting happens every week at some point
    you either burn down your 70 and do a reset or sit here and there and keep rolling
    I have done both with this run I am on now i do 2855 miles in 5 days have 24 hours off halfway thru then 48 hours at home
    so i am either bored or flying low

    Send in the form for scale approve but don't wait. Just pay for a scale ticket in cash or with reward points. Scan in the scale ticket to serve as a receipt with your trip sheet and the $ will show up on your pay check as a reimbursement.

    That is good. You can sometimes hit over 3K but 2,900 is on the higher end of what you can expect for weekly miles as a company driver with TA. I ended up with a weekly average of around 2,625 with TA and I think I was doing better than many of my peers at TA.

    Hopefully you have a DM who will take notice that you can run and get the job done and keep sending good miles your way!

    I consider that Sapp Bros as our company's eastern terminal. I am in that joint all the time.

    Come January, I'll work on my tan to meet your skin color expections.
