Empty in Minneapolis

So ovm...the button that locks all the doors wont unlock 'em?

Business has been good boss! :) Even with a couple dead days in the Carolinas and a day of dumbness in the Det. area, Ive still got a good week in. I know its a long shot, but if dispatch were to get me out of here today, it could be an amazing week.

Morning from el paso, nice day starting off here. Hoping we will get out today. We have faith. Had outs yesterday, 4 of them. But someone consolidated them and took them away from us/load one and put them on a tractor. That's the way it goes sometimes. Dispatch is still working their magic though.

Numbers, don't even want to talk about them cause nobody would believe it. Our averages for the year are awesome. One i will drop is 1902 total miles of dh year to date. Unheard of and outstanding. Especially when that equates to about 7% . What can you say. Overall we are up all across the board on gross,net, and fsc. Oddly though the only ones that are down along with dh are loaded and total miles. Can't quite figure that one out. Gross and net and fsc up but miles down, huh. Any ideas, anybody ? LOL
