Here's a good one---oversite???

1st out in Memphica for two days over 120 hours of rot time. A team comes in on the end of a 1100 mile run. They have a rot time of less than 3 hours or so. They get a 755 mile run!!?? Keep in mind 1 cv 2 sp where here all week. I have made this same run many times before, but for some reason I was bypassed! Not only me but the 1 cv and other sprinter.

Now earier in this tread I said they haven't given me any reason not to trust them...lol well, guess that has changed now!

I hate to say it but as times get more and more tough. They will first feed the fleet drivers then the teams then us lowly solo o/o. OVM must be making a killing. He has not been on here in days and thats a good sign he is running hard.

Where am I? Wishing we could get out of Texas! All of those darn drug-lord problems in Mexico have really caused a problem with getting freight out of here I think. A friend told me that our government was either talking about or planning on sending the National Guard to El Paso, where we are, but the mayor said they didn't need them here. That kind of talk does NOT make me too comfortable about being stuck here!

Yup got a load from Spartanburg to Michigan after DH into SC. and yes I am home :D:D:D for the weekend. Spartanburg was 185miles from haw river so if I wouldn't have moved I wouldn't have gotten it anyway.

4 LOADS? well I am here to tell you there was 0 for the first 3 days of the week. I do know the guy who was ahead of me got out of haw river at the same time I got out of SC.

I guess thats why they say its all a matter of timing.

We got a load from El Paso to Laredo yesterday afternoon. Soooo... we are still in Texas, but at least it was a 697 mile run, and the weather is great!

So Rick says early this morning we are #! within....drum roll....100 miles....considering we are in Columbus 100 miles would mean we have all of Ohio and part of KY and part Indiana covered....!! Over 160 loads to-day and not one in Ohio?
