    Feel your pain. Rainy days with a case of beer is the perfect time for that mission.

    Going to put that in the amazon list and give it a try.

    This morning, for the first time ever, I actually felt remorse for murdering a black widow in my garage. She had 5 big flies caught in her web and was happily snacking away on one. Problem is she was right outside of the laundry room door where a bare footed person might step.

    Sorry ma'am, but it's the afterlife for you!

    In last nights dinner the shrimp were steamed. The wontons werent quite what I was expecting but absolutely worth it. And drink options were homemade tea or home made lemonade.

    Not the best but best I could find that would be delivered. Everything else was fast food or way worse.

    I love my boss.

    So dispatch wanted me to run the load through Monday to deliver Tuesday, since they didn't decide calling the customer directly was a good idea (and instead dealing with the broker, who didn't get back to them *rolls eyes*).

    No reset, run recap hours of 8-9 hours a day for 3 days starting Monday (having probably about 10 hours left tomorrow). She gets involved, calls me directly, tells me go home and see my wife and leave Tuesday morning with a fresh 70.

    She doesn't want me 1) running recaps every week and getting burnt out, 2) doesn't want me pushing into something I don't have experience with (running BC loaded) and 3) running holiday Monday through BC and dealing with four-wheelers.

    I know a good dispatcher and logistics planner are 1 in a million, but a boss like this is 1 in a billion. Or maybe I'm just not used to dealing with someone who understand what trucking is about.
