    Your esteemed privilege is appalling. Now do 50 pushups. I know one thing… being 108 heat index today in the Midwest.. I would not want to be chasing dollars doing open deck freight right now. ;)

    I've noticed a lot of tarp loads haven't been getting covered lately.

    I don't know what's worse, this or messing with frozen tarps in wind at -10 degrees.
    Okay that's worse lol.

    Probably -10 but only because the tarps are frozen and it's like trying to wrestle a huge piece of cardboard
