And, I might be here for the remainder of Labor Day weekend.....augh! I was up and ready to roll at 5:15 AM this morning. I arrived at the drop site within 15 minutes of our deadline, a customer watch load......HA! The only ones there to assist me were two janitors! Gads, this company kills me! I dropped the load, loaded my empty and waited, for a new load! Labor Day Weekend, weekend dispatchers, and good luck getting a load! I told them I was heading to a truck stop and here we sit.......idling away company gas but it is not as much $$ as the money I am losing if I am not driving :(
I am showered, laundry is in the dryer and I had a wonderful dinner of orange duck with steamed broccoli and mushroom caps. My sister, Rhonda, stated that I will be the only one at any truck stop making a dinner like that from the comfort of my cooler and the truck stop microwave. And thank goodness I prepare my food in advance as weeks like this as a driver, eating out would kill what ever pay I was lucky to get. If I don't have a load tomorrow, my dispatch is going to hear some sweet words from me.........and one word about idling, I will blow my stack and watch out darling, those flames are going to BURN! Fire me dang nab it......I will make more money sitting at home!
Ahhhhhh, I feel so much better now......hugs and kisses to everyone!
