    Paris (the one without all the lights). In the 50's when I woke up. Now in the 90's. I hope I don't catch my death.

    I was tempted to hang out inside and just listen to the Indian attendant and the Hispanic drivers try to communicate over the Cat Scale intercom. It was quite entertaining.

    But now I get to watch a driver see how far he can stretch his brake hoses before they snap. Looking at the condition of the pigtail, it looks like he has lots of experience. :biggrin_25525:

    Speaking of which, I assumed that's why he got an orange truck rather than a red one. :biggrin_255:

    Checked in at my receiver this morning, and they told me someone lied about my 0600 appointment... that it was really an 0700 appointment. They gave me a door anyway, and unloaded me before the guy they claimed had the 0600 appointment.

    Ya really have to wonder about this stuff sometimes... :biggrin_2556:

    One other thing Indra, when you call customers, if they talk to you, double check load ref # or p/up # or whatever number and also the location. Sometimes, there are issues about that too...
     
    truckon and Indra Thank this.

    Yeah the shipper says unless my pick up number starts with T or MX they aren't gonna have it. Mine starts with an S but broker assures me once it crosses the boarder they will have my S number. So until they call me I am sitting at Walmart in Weslaco :)

    I ended up doing three more after I posted today. For a total of five.

    Rolled in 18:40. Dinner and TV took some time.
