    3 takeaways....(1) bikes don't belong on the sidewalk riding against traffic (2) driver is lucky he isn't facing manslaughter charges driving carelessly like that (3) I hope cyclist bought a lottery ticket

    Panicked Weekend dispatch calls twice desperate for a driver to help some other driver out... hmm I'm already loaded 200 miles driven at nv Stateline and you want me to go back to commie for Nia to help someone who ran out of hours or doesn't want to deal with the snowstorm or ate too many trucker roller dogs and isnt feeling well to deliver their load... well sure no Vaseline please... becoming to be more of a joke every day ohh and 1100 miles for 4 full days and a morning live unload with solids hours on 70 and 8.5+ recaps coming next upcoming days... things are looking bright at good ole crete... no inflation bump either

    Plus, getting back into LA on a Sunday night on the 15 is not a good idea with it pack to the gills with returning traffic from LV.

    Update - Got into truck 1/19 and since then only done 400 miles here at Marten. First load trucks transmission went out at delivery and was towed to Dallas Yard. Since then have been sitting.

    Not mad cause I'm getting paid $250/day in breakdown pay but just bored out of my mind. They are currently looking for another truck for me cause they finally found the issue which was my trucks clutch going out.

    Hopefully second truck works for more than 1 load(knock on wood)

    Edit
    Got me a Peterbilt now.
