You're not even loaded for Tennessee yet how do you know you're going to get it off tonight to be able do the other one?

Lol!! TN & TN to Cincinnati & MI. Loaded now. Arrive tonight. Sleep. Drop Smyrna 05:00, if not able tonight. Pick in Dickson immediately following. Pick in Nashville immediately after that. Both brokers blessing on the hitchhiker. Drop Cincy direct. Drop MI Thursday AM.

Mama said there would be days like this. Picking up load at 8 am this morning here in Laredo only to be told our 1 pallet weighing 700 pounds was running a little late. After waiting 10 hours it finally arrived but was 7 pallets weighing 8,000 pounds. Long story short; no run to Indiana. I just don't see how communication or lack thereof can be so bad!

Cheaper than two trucks. You're was probably there the whole time. Although you'd think if that was the case they would have said "¡¡oops, lo siento mucho senior!!

A Habit is very hard to get rid of.
Because if you remove the H, abit remains,
If you remove the A, bit is still there,
If you remove the B....it is still there...
To totally remove a Habit... you need to whittle it away slowly... but you must remove all of IT!

A visit to the "Sprinter Doctor" is always a good thing!
