We are still sitting in Salt Lake City. We've been here for a week now, 1600 miles from home. :( Our truck owner won't move us, E1 says stay there, and it's been a full week with no miles and no income. I would give up this job and go home if I could but we can't afford to pay the fuel for a 1,600 mile deadhead home. :(

I don't know about giving up the job but I would consider a new owner. You have lost way more money sitting than it would have cost to move.:confused:

i am with wellarmed, if i can't have a free hand to make dh moves on my own and on my own dime, i am not driving for that owner...but then again since i don't play well with others, i won't drive for an owner other then myself ....and even then, the owner would be a pita......

inkasnana ,
Slt Lk C, is the end of the line , you only get there with a good paying load ...
but that's to dance on graves ,,, so i won't do that .
i mention this not to upset you , but because others read this too.

some politics may come handy ,
ask him to DH to Ontario , or at least L.V ,
explaining that you are DH toward a place that will lead to a longer run then the place you are in right now ,
there for will more then pay for the DH fuel , just by adding those millage to the run.

and if you really need to cheer up , you can enjoy the best of SLT LK , for free tonight , just contact them , they will help you get there : its free :
