No problem. What is your unit number and name? Do you have the blue class 8 century? Not that I notice these things as a CEO, just as an anal guy. :)

Found Jeanna and had a great dinner and enjoyed some good karaoke with her...when it was all over, i found a message that i had missed that there is another family issue goin on at home...I truly love what i do, but there are times when we are away from home that makes me wish i was there everyday to at a minimum be supportive of family....So at 0300 i am heading home to be there with my family..to deal with a pretty big disappointment on ones behalf and loss (death) of a friend on anothers....

While we here all have a common bond, and yes our families tag along in that in one shape or another, for the most part we are separated from them by the road....Take a minute and let them know just how much they mean to you, and that the hurt they feel is felt my you too...let them know you share their hurt and are there for them...

Sorry to be soo sappy...i think it is a phase that comes with age and grandkids....

guess i missed that. lastnite he was saying stay away. i thought he was still there. we should get a call today or tomorrow. normally doesnt take them 3 or 4 hours. but being slow we will give them their needed time.

I'd have thought living in the freight lanes that you'd have been moving already..have you though about cozying up a little closer to Chicago?

that would be an idea except we have been home 6 times since we started. all but 1 time ouuta st louis we have been loade within 50 mi. of the house. they have done really well comparingly to all the others. load one has already beat the pants of the rest in 6 mo. . the rest had 11 yrs. we are only 150 from chicago 135 from st louis and 125 from indy. usually time isnt a problem.

How do you do this in cab scanning mess. I got it scanned and looking good. Put my name pro number and truck number on every page. Sent it along with the pro number for the scan. Got a message back today I'm doing it wrong. What am I missing. Brain explained everything to me but in all the things they told me I left out a step I guess

It said I didn't put the pro number or my name on the scan page where you punch it in on the qc before you send but when I look in my outbox I did. Gonna scan my new paperwork and see if this works
