[QUOTE="Old International, post: 911266, member: 14916"] Boonie, here is a typical day for me. All time is 24 hour format. Start work at 1930 on Sunday, 2030 the rest of the week. I start early on Sunday to unlock everything, and break the security pattern park of the loaded trailers. 2030-2037 Pretrip tractor, get info on how the local sort is running. 2037 > 2115. Build a set of doubles. Front box is normally 90% or better load for the hub, back box is MTY. 2115 depart the center for the hub. Drive time is 60 minutes, give or take 3 minutes. 2215 inbound at hub gate. break down the set, spotting both trls where told by the window wizard(dispatcher) 2245 or so- walk into dispatch, sign off the equipment, wait for window wizard to give me trls #'s to haul back to center. Drive around hub looking for trls, as they are NEVER where the WW says they are. Build set, pretrip set, depart for center somewheres around 2320-2330. 0030 arrive at center. Break down set, spot trls in doors to be unloaded by the preload. Find 2 empties, hook them together. 0100 LUNCH or checking my eyelids for light leaks. 0200 Pretrip empties( I do it this way, cause our center isn't in the best section of town, and the locals have come onto the property and screwed with equipment. 0205 depart for hub.....rest of the night is a repeat of above. 0530-0630 clock out and go home. I avg 42-44 hours per week, and about 1090 miles per week. That, in a nut shell, is my week. [/QUOTE]
