Could this be?

This sure looks like doomsday, these fires burning in SoCal.

Remember my promise? I will return to SwiftQuit, and then get a job at JobHunt, in the days following doomsday. Somebody PLEASE put these fires out.

Yeah I drive a Swift truck
And that means one thing
It means she's slow
It's a typical company truck
It's just all show and no go

I'm gettin' passed by Yella
And even Overnite
I'm gettin' passed by ever' body in sight
46 days on the road
And I'm not gettin' home tonight

No, my hometown's nowhere in sight
And if you think I'm pissed off
You're right
46 days on the road
And I'm not gettin' home tonight


Love pissing off those trucking company insiders.

Like I said, I'll be the recruiter that you cuss out until you decide to leave Swift.

Cats are good, although they're a bit heavy and expensive to work on.
I actually prefer the Cummins N-14 over all others.

No you won't. You'll be long gone from JobHunt when I get a job there. You're going to drive General Electric locomotives, right?

Hopefully I'll be driving an GM-EMD machine. General Electrics are cheaper than EMDs, but have a tendency to become toasters (Turbos blow much sooner than EMDs and that's the source of the infamous Rolling Black Smoke/External Fuel Ignition)

EDIT: Wanted to also throw this in: Tip, the possibility still exists that doomsday happens before I get to UP....but I'm hoping it holds off for a while...

SOMEONE get out there and put these fires out!

Heh. Maybe we'd be the next morning show? Sirius 1(47?) is the trucker's channel.

While I was at work today, I called a Gentleman who told me exactly what you told me about CATs and N-14s, but he was an O/O........Wasn't YOU by chance, was it? Nah, couldn't have been you, this O/O got scheduled, and he's coming in for orientation 11/5.
