    Make sure your PTA is set right and go home. Be sure to go off duty when you get there. Merry Christmas!

    Inkeper, I love the pictures you have. The signature is awesome but the dog stuck in the couch is a riot. LOL

    Thanks for the replies. I probably will but it is about 9 hours of driving and you know just hate the thought of free driving if indeed it is unpaid miles.

    It doesnt sound good but if they offer it, take it man. If you have a family, they will appreciate your sacrifice to see you. I have been told to deadhead over 500 miles home one time for christmas and I hauled my ### before they changed their mind lol. Its worth it to me for sure to me.
     
    TRKRSHONEY Thanks this.

    LOL...not the couch, passenger seat. You know how great the acceleration is in a Swift truck. If you enlarge the pic you can see the claw marks on the seat.

    Shhhhhh, the poor dog is embarassed. He popped out and hit the dash, got a concussion. He won't hardly come out of the house because of the helmet.
