well 4 an update, that meat load going to LA was a nitemare, turned out to be a 4 drop load, in all the worst parts of LA and surrounding area (worst 4 driving a tractor trailer I mean sharp turns etc., even really bad places crime wise leave truck drivers alone I have found as long as u lock your truck)
then i picked up 40000lbs of oranges in sanger california, and took 99 south, to I40, parked tonight just short of flagstaff arizona
produce loads are a pain cause i have to check them constantly to make sure the temps on the reefer havnt changed to much, and citris in general has a habit of falling over in th trailer...which is bad
ohh i had an accident in fresno California, ...a tree ate my passenger side mirror, and now i am in trouble again, told our insurance dept that it was the kite eatting tree from charlie brown, and that it ate truck mirrors now
FYI insurance dept has no sense of humor
but got mirror replaced( after being towed to a body shop, and yes, they towed tractor and trailer together) reason i was towed is because without mirror, I couldnt change lanes to right, or make right turns, without running over people, and DOT frowns on it when u run over things and people)
after mirror replace, picked up before mentioned oranges, and bought a new comb, its a nice comb
holler later

driver update, i have just completed my solo grad fleet training, and drove 12500 miles in feb, which means i have qualified to sign a lease, i have decided to do so, and am now in dallas tex filling outr paperwork, and doing ongoing training, before getting my lease truck, i still havnt decided what kind of truck i want my choice is t-2000 kenworth, or a swope nose peterbilt, (they look alot alike, this will mean i will get over a dollar a mile in pay, (for those counting that means my gross pay would have been 12500.00 in feb, but i have to pay 4 fuel
after i pay for fuel, i wwould have made, about 12 dollars
but i have decided to buy my own truck, and leasing one is the first step, to see if i can make ends meet,
4 those that care, i delivered my oranges to new mexico, and picked up a load of beef 42000lbs, that was delivered to new york city, then I picked up a load of peeps(yes marshmellow easter candy) from taylor, PA and took them to chicago IL
picked uo 41000lbs of Nuts in chicago IL (yes, nuts), and took them to dallas tex (where I passed the load to another driver that would take it to larado TX, and I came to dallas YARD
gasp. thats it and here i sit
and I lost my new comb in new jersey
holler later
