I'll probably get home early tomorrow morning, after another nap.
"Rodeo trip meter (B)" will read 4,990 miles for this rodeo, my having left late Sunday night for NC.

Opinion....Should I drive around the block for 10 miles so I hit 5,000 miles on the week? Or is it ok to round up?

And I would never sit on a maybe load all weekend what happens of it cancels on Monday?

In our 8 years in this business we have had EXACTLY one of this type of load cancel. It is VERY rare. If it does, we are likely not out anything since we seldom get any loads on weekends. We get a 34 hour reset, avoid the worst of the bad weather and have a very good paying load lined up. I will take that chance. IF it does cancel, we are in a good area for another.

Well just on the surface it seems weird but you know your business better than anyone else


We sit on these loads all the time. What else would we do? ALMOST "0" chance of a load over the weekend. We DID have a load cancel today that would have brought us here, BUT, they paid us to get here anyway. I just have a VERY hard time turning down VERY good pay per mile when there is over 1600 miles to be run!

Never said we were "real" expediters". We are "special". Much of Ohio is good for us "special" people. :p
