1 tanker to Gary IN (Tuesday)

... spending the night at home


My local office is open for a couple of hours this AM to update legal's for next year so am able to get ready in time. (Lots of personal stuff going on that I was procrastinating on this weekend)


At the office I see two drivers that I have known for years. One driver was the one who had the issue with the 60 ft bus I test drove last week. He had been trying to leave with it and had issues. So someone came to look at it and I test drove it. Then the same driver tried to leave with it again on Sunday. Same issue. I think they are looking at the wrong problem. This driver had the same issue twice in fewer miles than I drove the bus.


I did talk the the head dispatcher and they did not commit that they would have more work for me on Wednesday after we deliver so we will keep our eyes open.


Later in the day we pick up our rental car. We'll have that for a week, assuming we come back to MN.


I looked at my paperwork and it tells me where to find the keys ?? I was told the shipper would have the truck in the shop over the weekend. IF we had looked at the paperwork before today, we might have been able to leave today ... if the truck is really sitting outside.

Tomorrow we will pick up early ?? and will get somewhere near Chicago. The trip is 450 miles after we pick up west of Minneapolis. At least the weather should be on the plus side of -0-.
