    It’s a liquor thermos if you’re brave enough.

    A guy that worked for me did the math. Calculated his " morning duty" at 20 minutes (including reading the paper) five days a week. Fifty weeks a year, assuming some time off. Plus the savings of not buying toilet paper at home. He figured he earned the equivalent of one whole paycheck just sitting on the pot.

    Here's the worst part...would not purchase toilet paper...at all. When asked about the weekend he said he'd just hop in the shower afterward.

    He was so proud of how frugal he was. And so mad when he was passed over for a promotion to a supervisor position.

    My dad always taught me that if I wasn’t 30 minutes early, than I was late. I get to the truck at least 30-45 minutes before I want to leave. Simple things like giving myself time to go over paperwork and pretrip my truck and not having to rush it put me in a better place mentally for what type of work I do.

    Had a shop employee caught stealing toilet paper, not a roll a case. They did not fire him. 2 years later got fired for not passing a drug test. My point was it could have saved countless money. Do you think that was all he was stealing?

    I didnt.

    Still storming down there? I took a nap east of Andrews last night and got hailed on multiple times. I figured it would clear out today.

    In line at Roff now. They are running a skeleton crew and quit loading in the middle of the afternoon, so I won’t get loaded till morning. Oh well, it is what it is.
