What if it Snows?

What the hell is this, crash avoidance stuff?


Sitting here in SLC, in line at the truck wash to get the rented side dump clean before returning it. That's on the truck next to me.

 

Well i had a load and it canceled 20 minutes away from it. I'm guessing I won't get a load this weekend. But I did get approved for TONU. I'm in jersey outside of Philly, I was at the exit 4 TA off 80. I'll probably relocate to mid pa or Ohio to get work Monday. I wasted 2.5 hours of driving that I might have gotten a load during that time.


Maybe I'll go to Atlantic City. But I don't see any truck parking over there. I dont see that happening. There was a Meadowlands hotel with truck parking but it has been closed down. I would pay the $110 for a room then spend too much on Uber to get around.

 

It's too late now. I had a good week.

But its typically a soft week for part of it and the other half is good. Like this for over a month. I sit at home looking for 7 30 am till 130 pm. Everything gets covered quick. Middle of the week I get something.

Out here in Jersey. Lots of crap posted over and over again. 10 a mile to go to long island with 12' 8" wide load, $3000 over all. But permits escorts, sit at GW till midnight for crossing. Post it 2 or 3 times an hour.

Or go to 5 miles south of Canada. A dead zone. There isn't that much open deck freight here anyway, that pays much.

 

I’ve been paid standby for 4.5 days. Now I’m carrying it back to Little Rock and unload. Then bounce home and probably go back next week to pick it back up. Or that’s the plan and I hope it works out that way.

 

Had wondered about that, how difficult. Have a retired relative in Chattanooga who made artificial hay-hook hands for men who had gotten to deep in a carpet mill. Careful with those attachments. Close proximity to fluorescent light will make the 2 fingers clasp. Don't be peeing and shift your shoulder into direct line.

 

Most produce sections offer onions, various color, texture, and heat. Kinda add a little bite to that masterpiece.
