Millis OTR journal

Trailer. Florida has some sketchy people. Ya I’m going to put the lock on each time I DnH. Can’t let myself forget it’s there.

 

After driving through Alabama this morning I'd rather drive around New Jerseyites. At least when they cut you off it looks like they know what they're doing.

 

Yes there is something to be said about "skilled" reckless driving vs unskilled reckless driving like what you find in the south particularly Atlanta. That place is the worst.

 

The worst is when they fly by you at 85, pass, and then slow down to 60, forcing you to attempt to pass them and then they match your speed so you can’t pass. That absolutely drives me out of my mind!

 

We're you following me yesterday?

 

I was stuck in Florida until this morning. Thankful to get out. Not much comes out of Florida.

 

Nope, did you dead head to Albany?

 

Trainee # 2 out of the truck and into an abandoned truck at the Louisville KW. Idk what they fixed but the front bumper wasn’t on the list. Thing is ready to fall off. Pretty sure I was more excited that she passed her road test and backing this morning at Cville than she was.

 

Its a good feeling isnt it? With that said, man I don't miss training lol. Only people allowed to ride with me now are my own kids. At 7yrs old they listen better than some of my students did.

 

Yeah, I don't know how anyone can train. Good trainers are gems. I can barely live with myself in the truck, haha. My wife definitely makes it more work. I have no idea how the guy next to me at the fuel island in monteagle the other day had two big dogs, two boys around the same age as yours, and his wife, all stuffed inside that cab,...and they all didn't seem about to kill each other.
