Brookshaven, MS - Waiting Game

Apparently freight is extremely soft today. It's rare that I have to wait this long for a load, but even though I told operations I'd be ready to move six hours ago, I have yet to get a work assignment. I plan on calling in before they leave just to ensure they realize that I have to be back in Atlanta by tomorrow, or to get permission to drive the truck somewhere that has more services. I could really go for a steak dinner at Petro or, at the very least, a cool shower at Pilot. I just don't want to drive the 50 or so miles to get to those truck stops without having a reason for it, since that would definitely not help my chances of getting the low out-of-route bonus.
