[QUOTE="Old International, post: 685680, member: 14916"] I used to care about a feeder schedule. I would bust a hump to make up time, just so I could hit the gate at the anointed hour. I quit that when I almost wiped out a family on a very dark, lonely, stretch of concrete. Now, if anything is said, I tell who ever, you know what time I left the gate, you know how fast I drove, and where I took my breaks, and you know what time I got here. If I followed your plan, then why are you asking me dumb questions. I can't seal the trl, and I have no control over why other drivers decided to trade paint and hold up the rest of us. I was once an hour late, and the preload had been waiting for me for 45-50 minutes. Just so happened that the division manger was down, and he, with the center manager, opened my door to the tractor when I stopped on the yard. The VERY first question was "Why did YOU take so long in getting here". My response? I have 3 hours and 20 minutes to make the run, and I did it in 3:19. If you don't believe me, you can pull the record out of the IVIS. I thought the center manager was gonna blow a gasket, and the DM looked like I had just slapped him. He backed up, and then stated"that might have been the wrong question. Why did Pdale hold you?" My answer to that? I don't know, except that the PT supe wouldn't let me leave at my regular pull time. It just seems that sometimes any problems are the fault of the last person to do a job, no matter what the circumstances maybe. [/QUOTE]
