TransAm Trucking, Inc. - Olathe, Ks.?

Have just stopped in Clearfield. Sure wish I knew whether I was coming or going!!!!!

 

Currently half hour west of Cleveland OH in a service plaza. Headed through Ohio and Pennsylvania today and maybe into New York State. Time to run. Deuces.

 

Small companies out of NYC mostly local, Manhatten mini storage, moving right along, croptom movers

 

This doesn't bode well. Truck won't start. Think pump may have gone bad. *sighs*

 

Thanks HTQ , Just arrived in Indiana last night and met my new grandson , handsome boy !

Flew from Korea to Japan on the first leg and when we arrived in Japan our flight had been cancelled. WHAT !!!

I won't say what airlines it was I will just say it was an " AMERICAN AIRLINES " . So we waited in line for 2 hours and got rerouted with Delta and was here only 1.5 hours late. Could have been worse I guess.

All is good ! Got my 6 yr old Grandson an IPad so he is downloading games as I am typing this. This kid knows more about downloading stuff than I do . He was in kindergarten this year and when he started they passed out iPad's to all the students , I guess they might as well start learning young.
When I was his age we couldn't even afford an " Etch-A-Sketch ". Lol

Last year when I was home I had not thought much about trucking so I really did not get a chance to even look around at truck stops or schools but on the way home from the airport I was really checking out trucks in a different way.

Looking forward to checking some stuff out .

Have a good day everybody.

 

Grrrr, just had this type of swap come over the little, angry, black box. Weekend dispatch has it documented that I have been up, awake and running for the last 4 hours. Started just before 7am. Now they want to send me a swap where I go on break for 10 hours in a busy, loud truck stop and then run overnight, through the mountains of Pennsylvania to make a delivery tomorrow morning.

Waiting for someone from dispach to call me back to let them know it is not going to happen <sigh>

 

Difference between my company and yours, one of them any way, is that I carry spare parts and am expected to use them. Changed out fuel filter and primed it, and truck is up and running. Think they forgot a gasket last time and have air in the system. Multifunction lite is now illuminated, indicating a emissions problem. Oh well, at least it's running.

 

I'm at the Flying J in Indy until about 1030 tonight. My 70 is all kinds of messed up. I deliver Tuesday morning in Ocoee, FL. Tomorrow my pin should be set in Jackson, GA.
