There are little perks that making trucking worthwhile.
Coffee
To go boxes from the buffet ( Breakfast )
Being able to get out of the truck and go in and BS if you choose
Getting loaded and unloaded without TOO much hassle
Making decent money
TTR
When these things aren't in play, it's not so palatable.
What if it Snows?

As for how my day is going...Im on the side of I37 S of SA with a dead truck. It died with no warning and now won't restart. Called my guy in SA and I think the hook is on the way. 1st time in 5yrs.Sirscrapntruckalot, WesternPlains, Brettj3876 and 3 others Thank this. -
Pine Bluff has gone to 9 PM to 5 am curfew and also a ban on travel within the city. Truckers should be left alone same as Little Rock.
State ordered 500 new ventilators from dear uncle sam. UAMS will run out of kits this week sometime and need to get more. Our AG made availible a million from our fund to buy PPE and masks etc.
I went ahead and canceled all doctors until the virus is over. The medicines will stop at some point and thats just the way it has to be done until later this year when all of this clears up and we can get going again. (By Law Prescriptions are on paper with notary seal hand deliver from doctor to pharmacy. Dr is not allowed to do telemedicine or electronic scripts etc. And the State house has legislated severe limits anyway. So for me it's going to be bottoms up before bed most nights temporarily as a form of medication. Crazy how that goes.
I have spoken in the past years about how the medical system has been broken from my point of view as a patient with any of my doctors due to medicines. And so I put myself back a hundred years and seek out remedies for home style medicines so to speak. I am waiting for a supply of herbs to finish growing this spring at the store up the ways and bring home a small supply of certain ones which will be as medicine.
The Covid19 and pending increasing bans and limits on freedom of travel imposed on those from NYC, Chicago, Big easy and other states hotspots are becoming apparent here in Arkansas. They have a choice. Get back on plane, train or bus back to where they came from or find a quarantine for two weeks. We have not started to stop people at the state line just yet. If we did that will be a first in modern times since Reconstruction years.
I do not like the situation as I see it versus this Virus, we had a oppertunity to isolate china 5 months ago when they started getting sick by simply ending air travel and other transport sources to and from that hotzone. But the world does not think or act like that until it's too late. And here we are.LoSt_AgAiN, WesternPlains and Dave_in_AZ Thank this. -
Well this is the most bizzarre thing Ive ever had happen. My left side fuel tank is completely overflowing and my right side tank is bone dry. I put 120gal in on Fri and drove about 225mi to the house and another 75mi this morning.
