    Always a good thing in the long run. Can't make money if you're always exhausted.

    Love them cabover trucks, Kenworth, Freightliners, Astro's and International's. Have owned one of each over the yrs.
    My legs and hips are not the same as yesterday, don't think I could drive one of them now but I still stop what I'm doing every time I get the chance to check one out. Good memories in them Trucks. Oh!!!! always loved the dog house and a pretty Lady also. Keep your mind out of the gutter please.

    That’s their attitude.
    Said they’d call me when they were ready, around midnight, so I laid down and tried to rest.
    Fell asleep and got woke up twice by dang telemarketers.
    Once by phone ringing once, then going straight to voicemail and saying I can now ERASE all Student debt from my college!!!

    Maybe I should’ve went to college, I’ve never filed for any government nor student loan, but, I believe, the less you have to do with the government, the better you’ll be, I just throw my wallet to them every month, they snail mail it back with about $5-10 in it.

    I rechecked in, said they’d call to load in an hour.. it’s 0800 here, 0700 my time.., guess it’s midnight last night somewhere..

    Yeah, I overslept about 4 hrs, too.

    Of course, I've just started my work week, and you've been running like a scalded dawg for days.

    It takes me 14 hours to recover from a 14 hour day......

    @Cattleman84 makes me feel like a real slacker, even if I were younger and still working that kind of pace , would be a real grind

    Well a trailer is only 250 miles away. But it's behind a locked gate in a storage facility. The bco, is in a different state. Call the storage facility they won't realse it until the renter of that trailer space is contacted. If I wasn't pending on a mortgage I would just buy one. :rolleyes:

    TXDOT has been on a bender installing cable barricades along the median of many highways. At first I thought there must be a better way to spend money...until yesterday. Yesterday afternoon there was monsoon rain along 287 between I-40 and the west side of Ft. Worth. There were a total of four, 4 wheeler crashes that looked to be the result of hydroplaning. Three of those cars ended up in the cables and are alive today so that they might thank TXDOT.
