Where Are You....continues........

I'm a "geez what time is it now" kinda driver. Just get going when I have to depending on the load. If I have the time available to run it how I want I will try to get going around 10am and stop around 10 pm. I do most of my miles in the boonies of Montana, Nevada and Idaho so parkings not a problem at all late at night.
Now I am in Santa Nella ca. Been waiting all day to load and thought I would try to get somewhere tonight but this is as far as I got. Sitting around waiting all day tires me out more than working all day!

 

Whatley truck stop Whatley Mass
calling it a Ts is a little bit of an overstatement
more like a crummy diner with truck parking
that I will apparently be spending most of the next 30 hours at...........sigh
deliver tonite 8 miles away at 8 pm
pu tomorrow 6 miles away at 15:30
I should be well rested anyway
or maybe bedsores

 

Saw a guy do that earlier this week. Once he hit it, he stopped for a moment and then gave it the gas. I had to yell at him to stop. I have no idea what he thought that sound was.

Ripped the insulation out of his door and crushed the frame around the dock.

What did he do? Pulled out and moved over to the next dock.

 

I liked to get moving about 5am so that by 7PM I was shut down. Didn't always work that way, but that's what I shot for.

I am ignoring the phone. I am home until Monday morning!

 

In the wrong line at the Blue Beacon. Knoxville, TN

 

Welp, I like 7am to 7pm, but It never happens that way...

I'll feel like rocks tommorow, my A/C in my truck is broken for the week... :X

pick tommorow in motor city then off to muscatine IA, from there I pick in the windy and deliver in dunkirk ny...

 

how will you survive driver

 

Oh I got a little fan I'll plug into my inverter, I'll be A-Okay pete...

I try to shut the truck off if it's between 50 and 75 degree's when I go to sleep anyhow...

I used to idle all of the time because I worked for a company that didn't care about my comfort or if I made any $$$, my new boss has bought me a brand new mattress and legacy leather low ride seat and didnt complain a bit...

Last week I averaged 7.4mpg for the week and I ran 3045 miles...

I try my best to save my boss $$$ whenever I can, I never run the skyway out in chicago, never run the toll road home from rochester NY and always avoid spending his $$$ on the road whenever I can...

Guess I just appreciate the way he treats us drivers...

 

a transam driver told me how stupid I was not taking 90 over to mass from Chicago
his way of getting back at them I guess
I really need to change jobs if I start thinkin that way

 

Maybe I should consider myself a morning person too... But not every time. To be honest, I don't know what "kind of driver" I am... I don't have a specific time I like to drive... I know I don't like to drive thru rush hr traffic.
