    You know why they don't put the seals in correct numerical order on the bols on multiple stops???

    Especially where they check the seal at the receiver???

    Because they would have to put down their phone and pay attention.

    Hopefully they will receive coaching on this issue.

    Trailer Repaired.
    During last Cold spell of -27 nothing worked right.
    Finally had time, $1648.65 in parts.
    4 more hopper vibrators(that froze and screwed up permanently mounted on the trailer) $1592, a3/8 90 degree elbow $18.40.
    The bushing(which comes freaking separate and another trip to the parts store) $2.92 for a 3/8MPTX by 1/4FPT BUSHING.
    and a trailer air protection valve that started leaking air $35.49.

    My labor. $5,000 a head bump, finger mash, called myself an idiot, and his One should know better, and a few zip ties.

    I don’t think I’ll get paid the labor bill.:(

    Well. Four pads became two. That means too many trucks. That means too much waiting. That means too much complaining. And what does this all mean? Joe is taking the rest of the week off.

    Has there been more than one drowned chef?

    Maybe "they" thought it attracts less attention than getting "Vince Foster-ed".......

    The God's are against you ... What have you done? Failed to do? Review and correct, and back in the groove.

    Wonder if Kudzu would grow there. Plenty down here for cuttings; to transplant, get a good healthy start.

    Probably could have hired it out cheaper, and he would have brought all the parts together. You have probably heard of service like that, years ago...
