Here's a tidbit you just may never see on Bobs Freak Show. I was denied an ATO because I ran 17 consecutive trips to get me to a weekend. I told that dispatcher in Chittycago that I didn't really care what the (⊙▃⊙) in charge likes, if he has to write a letter, that he should do so forthwith. The dumbass wanted to see my log book, I laughed, told him to check his computer screen and he could check my recap, so instead of getting a 72 ATO i got a 70 hour recap, and now I will run one trip,I'll only have enough time for a turn, then I'll take my 72 hours, and maybe a sick day or two so instead of gettin the day I needed off to almost a week of vacation without taking vacation. If anyone here wants to get a copy of my soon to be best seller, find me in Chicago, and I'll give you a comp copy autographed. Theres some old new crap happening here and I aint the least bit happy with it.
Somebody else says their changing the routing to get off the tollways. thats funny. I hope the *** wipe sends me a damn letter for that too.
Anyway, it won't be hard to beat their asses at this game either....winter is here and I have a new collection of truck friendly Hilton, Marriott and Baymonts, to park their trucks at when the roads get slippery. Another good idea is to pay close attention to their pay routes, especially the one to avoid the Ohio turnpike, this one should get you on the clock in the hotel faster than any of them. When the road gets the least bit snow covered or icy, get your butt off that road and into a nice warm hotel room, (I will start picking the Jacuzzzi suites, because of the sore back I have developed because of these Horse ship seats they are putting in these Siberian Kenworths). And don't feel bad when you put that thing to bed. They certainly didn't have any qualms putting your *** in a sling, and they wouldn't have any problem firing your *** if you turned the SOB over. You are just obeying orders and if you have to remove yourself from a dangerous situation, so be it. If they fire you for that good, at least you'll get back pay with benefits for that. On the north side just off the Edens north of the split there is a Hilton with way enough room to park a set, and the least expensive suite, is $550. I personally would more enjoy the $720 suite, because of the hot tub. If you want to know how to get it in there call me on the cell phone, I will not tell you management guys. You already know everything you need to know because blinker tol' ya so.
Oh yeah I almost forgot, if your house phone is on the company call list, and they call you on your cell, for their benefit, you are not obligated to answer it. They cant do squat to you for not answering YOUR phone while youre on duty.
Also, don't ever short yourself a lunch or a break, and it's just not here it's industry wide. We are all effen ourselves into a slow agonizing death. When you take your hour lunch and two half hour breaks, (go ahead look it up, its in the contract, yo-yo) then hope that storm holds off until you get to Chicago, or else, you will have to put it in the hotel parking lot for ten hours. (I have to tell you guys the truth, the 800 thread sheets they have at the Hilton are amazing) This will start another tour for ya so if you are short a tour for your ATO, presto, not only have you created a tour of duty, you've gotten ample rest and relaxation going into ATO. Anybody in Chicago need any other advice, find me in Chicago. I have the G Martin/B Carter, best seller, "how to sling twice an much manure back, without half the effort"
Si onara.
