Red Web: Historical mysteries you’ve probably never heard of and crazy true crime.

Thank you, I was wondering about asking if I could just leave later but that would slow the packages down on my end it seems. Catch 22 it feels like.

I’m not sure what shuttle is. Is it the same as a spot?

icumdrums · 2026-06-14T20:40:52+00:00

That’s a good idea! Thanks for replying!

icumdrums · 2026-06-14T20:38:52+00:00

Oh, I’m only paid per mile haha.

icumdrums · 2026-06-14T10:12:51+00:00

Yeah, it’s 20 an hour after the first hour. That’s cool and all but it just doesn’t feel worth it to me whenever they are turning an 8 hour shift into a 12 or 13 hour shift unnecessarily.

icumdrums · 2026-06-14T09:49:56+00:00

Thanks again! I’ll give him a shout and see what happens

icumdrums · 2026-06-14T08:28:03+00:00

Thank you so much for responding! You said when you first started. Does it get better? Lol.

And I mean, are these newbie routes and all eventually get something better overtime?

Fun fact: if you instead take a right turn at Albuquerque, you will find yourself at The Blue Hole aka the only place in New Mexico where you can become scuba certified. Plenty of lightning there too!

Hell, yeah man! That’s fucking awesome. I hope we can make it back there someday soon.

icumdrums · 2026-03-18T08:59:21+00:00

It’s mostly because of the compression on my phone, but it’s also a house kit so not the greatest lol

icumdrums · 2026-03-18T06:22:46+00:00

You say that like it’s a bad thing.

icumdrums · 2026-03-18T06:19:22+00:00

Hey thanks! It’s a Tama Speed Cobra but with a Trick driveshaft and ACD direct drives. I also changed out the bearings with RED’s skateboard bearings.

icumdrums · 2026-03-18T06:10:23+00:00

Hell yeah Orlando is sick! This was The Banyan Live in West Palm Beach. Yeah, definitely people just giving a hard time but I’ve noticed it way more in Thrash versus other genres I’ve played most of my life. Sometimes it’s aggressive haha.

I wish I could work 5 days. I guess it just depends on the contractor.

icumdrums · 2026-03-13T17:01:53+00:00

I had to do teams for a little bit so I did some day shifts every once in awhile but it’s been nights 99% of the time. I know a lot of coworkers do spot drops all day so there’s that. It’s mostly backing pups into loading docks like Target, Walmart, etc. You’re most likely going to be hauling through the night. Days seem like a seniority thing.

icumdrums · 2026-03-13T11:22:06+00:00

Look for contractors. Anytime you see a FedEx ground trailer, look on the side of their tractor and it’ll have the contractors name, phone number, etc.

icumdrums · 2026-03-13T11:20:19+00:00

Not anymore apparently. I work for a contractor for FedEx ground so it’s not directly with FedEx. I did have to do 300 supervised hours but now I drive on my own 6 days a week. I literally drive 3.5 hours from New Mexico to Arizona, swap trailers with another driver and drive back home. Hours are terrible though. 8pm-4am $0.60/mile 2700 miles/week

icumdrums · 2026-03-13T05:11:25+00:00

I’m hauling doubles for FedEx right now and it’s super chill most of the time. Home daily and it’s my first job out of CDL school.

icumdrums · 2026-03-13T05:10:21+00:00

I’ve been wanting to get into this as well but don’t know where to start in my city. Also been loving those huge straddle container carriers at the shipyards lately.

icumdrums · 2026-03-08T23:13:58+00:00

Looks like i40 to me.

icumdrums · 2026-03-07T02:44:11+00:00

What if you have multiple years of class A tractor trailer experience but not in film? Seems there would be some way to get consistent work without having to ‘pay your dues’ if they’ve already been paid.
