Her first response was "are you crazy?" I was like "Jacquie, I've been here in Kansas since Saturday morning. If I'm stuck here I'll spend the money on a hotel anyway, and so if I'm gonna spend the money I'll just spend it on fuel and get the hell out of here finally. Funny thing was, then my fleet manager calls me and tells me she has a load that just came available today going to Memphis. It has a delivery date for the 5th. I asked her if it can deliver early so I can get it there today. She said it looks like I can. She said "If you want to deadhead to get home for the 4th I definitely get it cuz I know you have been stuck there for the weekend, so if you don't want to run the load I understand.
I said, "if I can deliver early then no I'll take it. I just would love to see my family by tomorrow because they're taking off for 5 days to come out here to Kansas and if I don't see them now I won't see them till after next weekend when they get back. Part of me was thinking "if I take the load I might not get home today." The other part of me was thinking "yeah but if you take the load, that's $500 for the week before you run your high dollar Florida load Wednesday." So, I decided it was probably a good idea to go ahead and do the load. As long as I get it there today and can drop it Im fine with that, so I can not be stuck around memphis long term. Not really wanting to be stuck there.
Oh well, you know how it is. Until the business fully takes off, I'm doing what I have to do for my family. So anyway, I gotta get packed up and get ready to head back to the truck, but I just wanted to hop on here for a minute and do a post for ya'll. Hope everyone is doing well and is ready to celebrate the 4th tomorrow. I still think its funny how this weekend was called the "weekend of the 4th." I get it, but in all honesty the 4th isn't till Tuesday so technically it'd the weekend of the 1st and 2nd. LOL Yes I'm a smart ass. So I'll leave you with that for now! If I get a chance later today either after I park for the night, or if I make it home, I'll try to come on here and do another post for you guys.
