Jacksonville, FL Area Scheduled Meets-Ongoing

So what does every1 do for work?

 

I drive over the road down here in the southeast. Can't complain, it pays the bills.

 

I work at the walmart warehouse in maclenny so were almost in the same feild lol

 

I work at Jax Port loading and unloading ships.

Just got back from Citrus Meet. Wasn't how I planned my day to go. But found some really good folks out there. Ended up throwing my rear lift blocks out going threw a wash out. So I spent my day running around finding what I could to make it work to getter back home. Think I might have tweaked my drive shaft also. I'll put a straight edge on it in the morning and find out. Good news is I already have new springs, blocks and front struts sitting here at the house I had planned on putting in this Wednesday. Talked with my mechanic and he said if the driveshaft is tweaked I'm good to drive it till I get another one. Just have to deal with the annoying vibration. I think I can deal with that for a couple weeks if that's all it is lol.

 

Just be careful with that, the force from the vibrations will wreck your u joints before anything else.

Blocks are cheap and easy but that's why you can't wheel them real hard or that happens due to axle wrap essentially. Good thing the citrus park is right there by Hernando!

 

I imagine thats interesting working at the port, did you load that freighter that sank? Walmart had over 100 storage containers on it that went down aswell

 

Yeah that was our ship we loaded. Lost some good ppl on that ship. I work on the tote ships. Our other new ship should be in this week.

 

Yeah I've delivered there a couple times! It's a smaller warehouse that we don't deliver that often.

 

Its alright i prefered working at the one in alachua that wasnt grocery.

 

Now that one I go to at least once a week! The Alachua warehouse pays better.

 

Non sense lol they dont have orderfiller bonus of 50 cents and they dont have freezer pay 75 cents. Or orderfilling incentive. Which is up to 30 percent of your base rate. That being said i enjoyed working there much more. Lol.
on a side note... this just happened

 

Yeah but doing a delivery there is easier for us. And what in the hell! What happened?

 

Backing into a spot at salsa mexican and wasnt paying attention to anything but the line.

 

Hit the cement base of a power pole

 

Yea at maclenny the truck drivers are usually inside helping with the unload lol never saw a shipment driver in alachua

 

Yeah I only do drop and hooks there. But that's crazy about the pole. I almost hit someone crossing the Arlington expressway on friday night. I barely missed hI'm by a couple of inches.

 

Ive also had my near misses, i went out to the jennings state forest trails and had some fun out there we oughta all go out there for a mini jacksonville meet

 

I'm down! Ive been wanting to take the truck down trails. I bought it last month. I've only taken it behind the town center just to test it out.

 

Any1 else down?
