    Things have been alright at Estes. It's hit or miss whether I'll come in and have to wait to finish loading but I run pretty much every day for sure. It's very rare for something to happen and I don't work. My meet guy runs out of a weird terminal so if he gets cut, I'll just go to one of the terminals in between where we meet. In some cases, I'll run straight through. They don't mind at all. If I run all the way to the end terminal, it guarantees a way back so I tend to do that.

    Plus I miss the road sometimes so it's kinda like scratching an itch.

    When I was a little child my favorite time was bath time where I would sit in the tub with my plastic ships. They would be different colours and I'd crash them into each other.

    The saddest part was when me mum would pull the plug and they would slowly and gradually start spinning towards the drain. It would create a vortex and they would spin and get sucked under the water until the tub was empty and they sat at the bottom.

    That's the state of my company. It's a violent death thrash to the bottom. The bridge is burning and the ship is sinking.

    It's a mess
