Where Are You Continues, Again.....

well i guess your pu didn't fall off so your having a good start
these car haulers get very cavalier about unloading
when i was at the car dealership they would fly down them ramps
door open stop quick next one here we go

 

Waiting outside the fence at Altus.
Have a ready at 4 pm (yeah right) and it's 4:20.

 

The fence? No tree?
What has this world come to?

 

It was a whopping 6# carton.
Dispatcher had wanted me to go to Katy.
But at 3pm when I left Palm Restaurant there wasn't any way I could have done it and made Altus before they left.
Palm Restaurant you ask? Lobsters what else?
On the 6th driving day the 40wt oil has been diluted with enough diesel to have no oil pressure at idle when hot.
And injectors at out of reach price wise and without knowing which injector or injectors are leaking I don't see how I can drive it much more.
I haven't a clue what to do.

 

full coverage in a bad neighborhood

 

Wakin from slight Coma in Ft Worth....line haul o/o jus rolled in w/rest o my drops.....

 

Wow! At roughly 8:30 I sent "sitting in the shade doesn't help to get my truck fixed or replaced"
Almost immediately he sent pick up MW Industries and deliver to Sumner. It was a 230# pallet. I can't remember what #2 was.
3 was Supply Pro to Gulf Star Roofing. 1002# pallet. Then to Zupt off 8 and 249. For 3 Pelican cases 450#. Then to International Coatings for "2 pc 10#" Initially they couldn't find the customer or po# in their system. When it did come out it was a 418# pallet. Got rid of Zupt at Siemens on Telge Rd.
Then rid of International Coatings at ATI near Fairbanks North Houston and Hempstead Hwy.
Then to Dril-Quip on Eldridge Pkwy. Where it took an hour to get out loaded. At 4:45 I sent either get SDV to stay later or tell them I'd get Gaffney Kroese in the morning". He sent pick up Gaffney Kroese and deliver in the morning.
But on a chance I went to SDV and honked.
And they let me in and took the freight off my truck.

So it might have been a one of a kind fluke.
But carping got me 6 delivery tickets!

The truck left a puddle of oil at least once.
And it is idling rough. But it starts every time.
And if I keep putting water in it it keeps on going.

 

Nice, looks like you had a good day! Keep after them I guess, hopefully that'll put you back on the road to getting what you need.

This is a fun week, though it's mostly because I'm so low on hours midnight has been my roll time every day this week. Getting 5 whole hours soon/now, but I'll use most of them getting back to the distribution center. Tonight at midnight I'll get close to 12 hours, so that'll be better.

 

Made it through another day.
First was pick up two cartons 38# at Basic Printing. Then not too far away Pipeline Packaging for a 422# pallet of buckets and lids. Then he told me wait as there might be another pallet. It was going up to the South part of Conroe. It went on last so to Conroe I went. As I was coming back down I-45 he said I was to do the cartons first the buckets second and Conroe last. Oh well.
Got to the cartons place off Tanner Rd. and the guy who received said the lady must have called and griped. But he wasn't at all upset that I was there later than she wanted.
The Buckets went right off 1960 and if ever there was a road I don't like 1960 is IT!
Got a new battery put in my Timex watch.
Got home right before 6:30 after getting 2.219 diesel in Cleveland.

I don't yet know WHERE in Kemah but I have a 9am pick up going to a ship at Industrial Terminal.

 

Messed with my head today...had me get a load over just east of Sparks (dog food...Kal Kan, now Mars) for a load up to Sumner, WA.....different smoke origins, but smoke all the way to Eugene.....395/139/39/140/97/58/I-5....nice drive mostly, just a bit of construction...not bad!
