    The one by Smyrna is not nearly as bad as the southern one. I'd go to Ellenwood.

    Ellenwood terminal has nice showers.

    We usually hit up the Flying J.

    My 20... 4 hours from home for the last 12 hours 2 days after I was supposed to be home. If I could get a rental car over the weekend down here, I'd already be gone. This company hasn't even tried to give me a reason to stick around since I started here.

    Are you sure the plan wasn't for you to go home from there?

    IDK, I have the feeling that the weekday dispatchers decided to just leave it to be the problem of the weekday staff. Usually I wouldn't go so nuts over a delay, but that close to home 2 days after my hometime request, I had zero patience. The place I was stuck in being that crap hole of a drop yard in Kearny, NJ didn't help a bit either, lol. I already had that planned as my last day too oddly enough (waiting til Monday to quit, no point telling the weekend staff, right?). I only wish I could quit twice now...

    Brandson, sorry about your delay. Weekend dispatch is a cluster.

    They should have let you bobtail.
