    Sometimes he's the biggest PITA going, but idc his undeniable love & his urge to hump everything is worth it 1000x when you walk in the door from a stressful day. Good for the soul

    My buddy called me about 4:45. He went to pick up his trailer that was supposed to be loaded Fri afternoon/evening in Sweetwater. So we're bs'ing and he's in the trailer area looking for his trailer. I tell him "go check the mailbox for your bol". No bol. Tell him to pull around back to tje loading area. Yep, there it is, sitting empty. Now he's like "wtf do I do?" So after I get done laughing at his dilemma, I tell him to call the youngest company owner because he's cool as hell and will figure it out for him. So he calls the safety dept # and doesn't get an answer. I call the kids personal cell # and he answers and I let him know that whats up, texr him my buddys # and he tells him to just head back home, no big deal they'll handle it tomorrow and he'll make sure to take care of him for his wasted time and fuel.

    I figure it was a material supply issue. But the gd manufacturer never notifies us when this happens. Just let's it go till we contact them.

    You'd be surprised....and we have another granddaughter tomorrow.

    I'm just soaking it in

    I do need to get my tires on and get my butt back to work. We just picked up a local equipment manufacturer and the numbers I been turning down is adding to the motivation.

    But ya can't replace time and time with my grandkids gets top billing!!!
