    They wouldn't dream of trying to buy days from me. I think my FM would prefer I just stayed home. I've been out about 3 days short of 6 weeks now and currently headed to ND putting me 850 miles from home. I got my home time scheduled for Thursday but will only be taking 3 days off and working through the Holliday.

    10-4 to that. Dont put too much importance on being liked around here because it will just get you ran over.

    Never have I ever heard that a buyback was not an option. Time to ask for a different DM.

Shiuld be interesting with my 14 hr clock. Delivers tuesday or wednesday in TX. But I go tgru home on way. Get thru home sometimes tuesday. I sent a msg asking if it was dropping in west memphis and can I pick up early. 5 hrs later still no answer. Oh well.

    Check satellite views of your Monday morning final for possible street parking and you can log another break B4 your next pickup or check the shipper. How far can you move the truck before the elogs puts you on duty?

    Thats not true. There are scenarios where you can drive off duty and I know elogs doesn't put yiu on duty until the truck as moved a certain distance like a 1/4 of a mile
