    Does W/S have any runs into the Chicago area or any parts close by?

    in pheonix roasting my balls off.

    what do you guys do when you get somewhere super early? my load isnt scheduled to deliver until 1130pm local time tomorrow. called them all morning trying to move up the appointment but no one has answered all day. even went down there hoping they would either take it or i could at least talk to someone, they just laughed and told me i was early. no **** sherlock. dispatch hasnt said anything back.
    not that i mind waiting im actually getting quite used to it, its just i would really rather be productive.

    Must be the diamond shamrock that you are at. All the truck stops in Phoenix are full by about 4pm. Which safeway the one on Alameda? Not to freak you out but the Safeway is one I personally hate it sucks, especially if you are down on the end almost a jack knife/90 degree back. I delivered 6 loads of flower there, I live in Gilbert, east of Phoenix. I will be out to Desert Center, CA to meet and bring back a load to deliver to Pepsi at 11:30. Maybe I will see you at the terminal.

    not sure if i will be at the terminal at all depends on what they throw at me but so far it looks like im sitting all day tomorrow...unless they have a shower there, i was told its the smallest terminal so im not really expecting it to have anything, but never know. i might have to move over there for a change of scenery, but i was under the impression there wasnt a whole ton of room for parking or anything.
