Hi General Zod. I am well. Hope you are too. Things are very hectic here since mom just got back from hospital so my posts will likely not be too frequent.

It has some problems that need fixing. Problem is,the company garage where I am can't get it in until Tuesday. I do not want to wait that long. They have unseated trucks here. But weekend dispatch can't issue them out.
It is a 2009 year. A little over 380,000 miles on it.

Makes no sense to me why I can't get a truck issued to me on the weekends. 😀 😛

Yea I was thinking the same thing. If a company is a 7 day a week operation then all aspects of the business should be the same in my humble opinion.

Exactly. 🙂
I have to go through my home terminal in PA to get into another truck. The office there is only open until noon on Sat. Of course,my luck had me trying to get another truck after they closed,

Yea certainly not good business sense there. Everyone should operate on the same schedule.

Well,central HQ,in Lincoln,NE is 24/7. But yet why the supervisor out can't let me into another truck is beyond me. The home terminals don't have dispatchers. How I am supposed to be a productive driver when I gotta go through this is beyond me.

What gets me is,I talked to two guys who have been here since earlier this week waiting to get their trucks fixed. One since Tue.The other since Wed. Why they have not been issued other trucks is a mystery to me.
I like the truck I am in. But not that much. 😉

She is a bit better. Doctor says she has an ulcer. They need to do more test to figure some other stuff out but first they need to take care of the ulcer.

They gave her some meds for the ulcer. Hopefully if the ulcer heals the iron leves will come up and she wont be anemic. They need to check her heart too. Its enlarged but that is not unusual for the elderly. So still lot more tests on the horizon.
