    Decatur is much better than Clinton. Hubby only had a two hour wait last week. Thats not bad for ADM. :biggrin_25525:

    As the others have said welcome to the thread. I know I've spent many hours in the south lot of Cargill. Soon I may be spending some hours at Cereral Foods too.

    Thanks for the welcome, guys. Sounds like a pretty friendly and knowledgeable bunch here.

    Yeah, crop jocky, I figured you had to be someone other than the preloader at Horizon, I think his name is Victor or something like that, he's not the warmest individual! I try to stay out of everyone's way at Horizon - we're all there to make a living, and you guys have your fair share of problems to deal with too. Some hopper drivers at Horizon have forgotten that. (If any of our trucks are in a bad spot, just let us know - we'll gladly find a new hiding spot!) The 389 isn't too shiny right now, and probably will be lucky to just get rinsed off this weekend with another system coming through monday. Be sure to give Jennie hell in the flour office - she needs it.
