So here is the updated story. Apparently yesterday, I called so many people complaining about this situation that it was like I dropped a boulder into a pond. The ripples were HUGE. But sometimes that is what you have to do. If you have enemies in life, it's because you actually stood up for something. So I get a call this morning from a guy that I really don't want to haul for, but in my situation, I will. He then tells me that his freight is slow and his people are sitting. So, phone calls are made and low and behold they put me on this california run, without changing companies. My exact words to them was "see, that wasn't so hard".
So they tell me that I need to be at a place 2 and a half hours away in two hours to load today. Great, at this point, speed limits are merely suggestions. But I get here when I'm supposed to get here, I get loaded with a 12,000ob load and I'm ready to rock and roll. I'm on my 30 minute break right now in AR and once that is over in 13 minutes, it's time to head west. To Compton...
I just hope they can keep me busy. That is all I want. I'm tired of sitting. The holidays are already wasted and there is no reason for me to go home, so I will collect that bonus for working over the holiday to add to the money that I"m making actually rolling. It sucks for my family, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do. And I'm doing it.
And of course, still keep up with this site. We are still going to move it. We are setting up a test site now on his server and make sure everything is going to work properly. There are some files we are not sure about so we are going to play around with those and try to make this site faster. So you see, even on my required DOT breaks I'm still working lol.
