Blog, Where we are today
Still in Laredo
By MrBoyd • Jun 18th, 2008 • Category: Blog, Where we are todayWe didn’t go anywhere today. Our driver was told last evening that his load would come across the border from Mexico at 8 AM today. It showed up about 1 PM. Situation normal. The driver was told that the crane would be available in about 2 hours. When we picked him up for dinner at about 6:30 PM, the crane still had not arrived. When we checked with the yard dispatcher, he learned that the crane company wouldn’t show up until they had a purchase order from the trucking company. Of course, that was too late to get anything done today. SOOO, we’ll be waiting in the morning for a PO#, then a crane, and then that means a delay for another Texas permit. It seems that the load grew out here in the deep south Texas sunshine.
SNAFU–situation normal; all fouled up!
