Less Than 48 Hours Hometime

Welcome to my new blog I figured since I have some free time sitting around waiting to get loaded or waiting on loads period I would write about what goes on out here, and see if anyone even cares lol.

Well this past friday I was sent down to good old Sumter, South Carolina for a delivery at 8am. I was expecting while I was getting unloaded to get another load sending me home to Greenville. Well it didn't happen that way. After getting unloaded it was a good hour or so before I finally received my next load. At a quick glance it look like it was going to be awesome, I pick up less thank a mile down the road then high tail it back up to Greenville. Well upon closer reading my pick up time wasn't until 8 o'clock that night, damn. I was still optimistic though that when I arrived at the shipper that they would maybe get me loaded early. After arriving and talking to the guys on the dock they said "Looks like it's gonna be around 4 o'clock". I was pissed to say the least but what are you gonna do right? So I wait around all day playing on the computer until 4. I checked back in with them and there was a new set of guys in there obviously there had been a shift change since I had been there since 10 o'clock that morning. They informed me that it was probably going to be 8 o'clock now. More pissed but still, what are you going to do. To shorten this up I didn't get out of that place until after midnight. I got to Greenville at around 3 in the morning and eventually got to the house at around 4 in the morning. I had to leave out this afternoon to deliver this load up in Kentucky so I had less then 48 hours to freaking spend with my family before starting this all over again!!!
That is a typical weekend for a trucker.

Thanks for reading and post comments please......
