Howdy folks, it's been a while since I posted here. Actually I miss expediting. My wife and I were Sprinter #265. Most of the people who posted here before seem to be missing.
A tractor trailer driver with Load1 logos came in to the lumber yard here with a load of cabinets. I asked how he...
Hi Dennis, was at the computer and wondered if chefdennis was still hauling. You probably don't remember me, I was at Load one for a while. How's everything going?
Howdy folks,just stopping in to say hi to everyone. My wife and I used to be sprinter #265 here at Load 1. Not sure if it's ok for me to be here on the Load 1 section. My wife talks about getting back into expediting and if I ever do I have to say I'd check with Load 1 first. Did ok here till I...
Tuscaloosa Ala.....cold here tonight. A question for anyone that chooses to answer: How long do you usually sit in a location before moving? Do you rely on dispatch for guidance or just figure it's time to move? I know sitting is part of the overall experience but I'd like to cut it down to a...
Nice day here in Memphis. Texas didn't yield anything so dispatch said Memphis might work out. Hope so. 5th day waiting. At least the Giants won, that's cause for celebration. It almost seemed like the media was all for the patriots. Anyway, y'all stay safe and have a good day........
Good afternoon everybody. Well the nice things about Texas are the authentic Mexican food restaurants and the weather(save for the horrendous hail storm last night). I'm finding out how hard it is to get out of San Antonio. Being from Mich, I've had enough of Texas for a while. Is freight hard...
Perceptions can be funny sometimes. My only knowledge of NYC comes from watching TV which doesn't put the city in the friendliest light. I suppose if a Long islander were to come to where I live they'd be apprehensive also. My house is in the country surrounded by farms and woodland. Pretty much...
Not trying to be a PITA. I know dispatch is turning over stones to find loads. Long Island was a hoot. I don't know how people can live like that. I'd go back to deliver but I'd like to get a handle on where to DH to to get another load. I sure don't want to spend any more time there than I have to.
Mornin everybody. Dropped in NYC(Long island) last week and went over near Allentown to wait for the next one. Wait, wait, dispatch sends me to Youngstown, Oh. Wait, wait. In the fifth day. I hope something shakes loose today.
Mornin everybody. Got here to central Indy on Monday and thought I could get right back out. Crap. No such luck. I hope dispatch comes up with something. i know their looking. Anyway, y'all have a good day.
Sitting here in Toledo. Thought it would be a good spot after dropping last night until I did a 19 and found about three quarters of the load one fleet is here also. prolly head out later if nothing changes.
In NC to see #2 son who's in the USAF and shipping out to Germany just after new years. Taking 5 yr old grandson with him for 4 yrs. This is gonna be hard. We'll see them again before they leave.Was just in Minneapolis. Dennis' Miami trip sounds nice after that.
LOL, I hope I pick up on this location-location thing soon. Was back out quick last time I was in St.Paul but this time been sitting 2 days. Will be moving a little later if nothing comes in. Not sure which direction would be best though. With the temp here I'm guessing southerly might be prudent.:D
Holy #%&$#@%$ it's cold and gettin colder here in Minn. I need a load out to Bermuda or Key West or Mich or something.(At least it's warmer there. Is there usually a lull or break between xmas and new years?
juju, I remember when I had a brain tumor removed. It really messes with your sensors sometimes. Don't be surprised if the young man has a few differences after surgery.
