A Drive in the South of France About 4 weeks ago, I picked up a load on Sunday and headed up to a Costco store in Burlington VT. I had an appointment there at 0600 Monday morning, and leaving Sunday and spending the night there left me with full hours on Monday morning after I was unloaded. I was unloaded, and ready to roll before the powers that be instructed me where to head next. I guess the powers that be are not up this early. I park the truck in the lot and laid back down while I wait for the computer to start beeping with my next load. It wasn't long till it did, and when I took a peek to see where I was heading, sheer terror set in. I was to head to the Johnson & Johnson plant in Montreal, Quebec and pick up a load headed to Mechanicsburg PA. I had heard from other drivers about these loads, and for almost one year I had managed to somehow avoid them. My former STL (Service Team Leader, a kind of go between driver & dispatch) had told me they would not send me there...
