I think it's time to hit a Wal-Mart!

Setting here in Montgomery, AL waiting to load- headed to Wytheville, Va-

Been setting here for almost 2 hours now- still 2 trucks ahead.

I got hungry, so decided to dig through the cooler-- had to throw out the 1/2gal (unopened) milk-- guess the cooler aux power shut off while I was home Friday nite & all day Saturday. Through out the salad too.
I'm not cooking some of the hot dogs that I found in there.......hmmm don't know if this is such a good idea or not.

Anyway, I also noticed I have no water for my Burton LunchBox stove-- other than Propel kiwi-strawberry flavored water! So, I don't know how these dogs are gonna turn out--- flavored that way.

Guess it time to go shopping.

 

that's strange--- we up to page 37-- but when you click there-- it says--
no post on this topic.... weird

 

The same thing happened to another large thread. You may want to start a new one.

 

Bumping the page/ character limit you suppose? well, lets run it too the wall and see if it locks up completely!

what week we up too?

2400 miles this week with 38 hours home last weekend...and it's friday nite--
I'm setting in Little Rock, Ar deliver at 10am Saturday--- so again it looks like gonna be a shortened weekend home time for the 4th time.


I don't know... I need feedback from experienced-- Regional Drivers

is this good? or bad? I came over here expecting 3 weekends out of 4 -- and when they said weekend-- I was thinking at least 42 hours( one complete day + the daylight hours of the other)

what's normal Industry wide? for those guys & gals that get the Whole 48hours each weekend-- how many miles are you averaging during the week?

 

I am considered a otr driver and I am rarely gone more then 7 days at a time. I am usually home for 2-3 before leaving again.I was home the Saturday before Labor day and left the Thrursday after Labor day and was back home the following Thursday and didn't leave till the following Monday. Every company has a different definition of a weekend home. My thought would be home by midafternoon Saturday and leave again Monday morning.

 

thanks for your insight & response

 

You are welcome for the response. I doubt I offered any insight.

 

[quote="headborg"]When I ran regional, it was common for me to get home Friday evening or early Saturday morning, and then leave out late Sunday night or early Monday for a Monday morning delivery.

 

glade we got that mess fixed..
