    I asked The OM since I'm idling so we don't have major problems with gelling, if consideration will be given towards fuel bonus.

    "No."

    It wasn't my fault. I was a victim.

    There's like 8 LANDSTAR'S here to be unloaded.

    We were 4th.

    The guy that was first is mad cause he got unloaded second.

    The guy that was 3rd slept through everything and woke up and is REALLY mad.

    Billy Big Rigger in his 2005 FLD old arn that seems to have turned out to be all hat and no cattle, arrived last.

    He was telling everyone at the shipper about these youngin's, and how they used to drive through the worst conditions in WHY-OH-MING in the day.

    Apparently he stopped in Flagstaff for se storm.

    Cascadia life for the win.

    We're empty. The OM is pleased.

    So I guess the guy that was there first is the only other one that has a load besides us.

    And it's UNFAIR that they had one to two day head starts on us.

    Completely UNFAIR.

    So we're at the shipper being loaded now.

    The OM is pleased, although we may run out of hours, and be forced to do another night time thang.

    Reminds me of a story my dad would tell about his time in the Navy '57 - '60. Was fortunate enough to be stationed in LA basin area near where his parents where so he could play with his cars in the base "hobby shop".

    He had found an aluminum valve cover for his Model T speedster so was polishing it at the shop before installing it. Dude that ran the shop tells him to not "make it too perty, Cause a car you can't drive is like a woman you can't screw, No point in keeping it around"

    That is why I am not so much into show/collector cars. I prefer nice daily thrashers for myself.
     
    Feedman, Dflip, Dale thompson and 5 others Thank this.
