    That has a bit more to do with not checking in regularly. :biggrin_25520:

    Yeah. I'll jack up her front and wipe clean every nipple and pump them with my gun until full. She like it. Then I'll call and order her 8 new rubber shoes and allow TA gigolo to play with her hour or two.

    Hahahahaha

    I out smarted dispatch AND broker.

    My back haul was about 130 miles from my previous delivery. After conversing with dispatch, who supposedly conversed with broker, I was told I could make pickup anytime after 0800 tomorrow (Saturday). But seeing as I've been running nights, there was like almost zero chance of relocating closer to shipper and being able to find parking for the night.

    So I went online and looked up the shipper and checked reviews from drivers on several social sights. MANY reviews stated this shipper would load you early and that they were open 24 hrs. Also checked out the area surrounding shipper on google maps. Found that street parking was allowed right beside the docks. That settled it in my mind, I pre-tripped and hammered down.

    Upon arriving at the shipper they said, "Sure put it on the dock." They hadnt started staging my load yet, but said he would switch to it immediately and it would be ready in about 1.5 to 2 hours.

    So everyone keep your fingers crossed for me... Maybe a few choruses of the "Flying J" song to please. Lol

    Might not be the answer you were looking for but sounds like a reasonable and honest one.

    I have always appreciated those ones rather than the stretch the truth to the point of being a lie answers.

    I just figured it out. All the NEO’s (Non-Essential Organisms) are on the roads for the holiday weekend. It wasn’t till I passed the 2nd boating life preserver on the shoulder that it dawned on me...
