We picked up these 2 Genie machines near Seattle, WA yesterday afternoon. We delivered the smaller one this morning in Meridian, ID, which is right outside of Boise .
We made it to Twin Falls, ID when our dispatcher, Chris calls us on the phone. It seems that there is an “issue” with this model machine that we were supposed to deliver in Texas, and they want us to bring it back to Moses Lake, Washington!! About a 500 mile trip! 500 very steep, very mountainous miles!! So, now we are headed back west, waiting to get a confirmation on exactly how much they are going to pay us to bring this all the way back to Washington! If its not much, I told Joe the only “issue” with this machine is that it will be sitting on the side of the road somewhere in Idaho.
Which means we probably won't get a load delivered in time for this weeks payroll cut-off. Gotta love trucking. This is definitely a statue day and not a pigeon day!
Mantra for today: Hang in there for 2 more weeks! Breathe! Breathe!
