    I don't get the question or why the qty would matter...

    its 15 minutes no matter how much you fuel....and if your spending the night there fuel in the morning and combine it with your PTI and save 15 minutes on your 70..

    because i didnt have enough hours left to do anything yesterday so i didnt care. And it wouldnt have done me anygood since there is no freight moveing, we are all sitting here. And since no one is paying me for all my overages on my cell from haveing to call every customer to get the right info and to call dispatch 600 times im not wasteing my money...

    I hear ya on that!...Yesterday I called to get delivery instructions on 1st stop for this morning and was told someone at WS made appt, unbeknownst to me, for 7am TOMORROW!!!!!...I asked if there was any way to get one today and there wasn't...So now I have to sit for well over 24hrs waiting to make 1st stop and I can't go to 2nd stop which is only 30 minutes away from 1st as the 1st is almost half the truck........

    Ever here of a " Etch a Sketch" log book ? Saves you hours and works great. Ask who's in charge of safety to get you one.:yes2557:

    oh i love that, I get to a LTL customer and their like "your late someone called and said you'd be here at X:XX"

    there is no way to make a apt on the LTL runs, you never know how long it may take or what may happen. I dont know who's calling these customers but i'd rather them find somethign else to do besides calling the customers....perhaps get us the right info maybe...

    Hey Wingrider: Are you still willing to give up that spiffy camera system for a thousand bucks? Just tell whoever gave it to you that it was stolen while you were paying for fuel at a truck stop or something!! :biggrin_2559: :biggrin_25514: You could have been a thousand bucks richer, too.....

    My 20....umm, where the hell AM I? Somewhere playing in the rockies (as usual) headed to the beautiful Columbia River highway. If I run into rush-hour traffic in Spokane later on, then I'll probably cry big crocodile tears or something......... :biggrin_2551:
