    so, been an interesting week.
    (and i'm going to go back to bed soon, i'm still exhausted, i got way behind on my sleep somehow)

    I have decided that everyone in dispatch is named Judy. They all question this. I say because Judy is that emotional black hole of a girlfriend that just sucks you dry and takes and takes and takes and never gives anything back.

    It's starting to catch on.

    But then, there's one guy, the senior night dispatcher (who I do like, he's very good) and I say your name isn't Judy I need a new name for you. You're like a pimp, stroking all the drivers, "oh you're my favorite" and getting every little bit out of them. HIs boss is standing there and he says "yeah, like Honey Bear"

    bam, Honey Bear is named. It's not even my name, his boss came up with it. I need to get him one of those big 1970's floppy hat and bell bottoms.

    I also told them that i"m tired of all these little short hops and I told them I'm not doing 10 sets a night anymore. At 9 sets I"m only taking a single or I'm bobtailing back.

    One of them (Judy :) ) gets me set up on my first run last night and says "it's a hooked set, it's out on the ready pad, doesn't count against your 10". I think they are on to me.
