    We're celebrating being 5 miles from the shipper with an indigenous Salisbury Steak Special.

    The wife has a policy that any change found in the washer or dryer, goes to her change jar, not the household change jar.

    I always wondered why people will back like that.
    I’d not have swung my truck down an embankment like that if it was dry.

    Just gonna say - if I had to drink 3.2% abv beer; and my goal were to get fairly well loaded.... I'd need to spend a lot.

    The $ to abv ratio is skewed.

    (Edit: Quick research seems to show that Utah finally put that dog to rest.... Minnesota is the last 3.2 state.... When I was last OTR Oklahoma was on that list too. Appears they've also done away with that observance.)

    The recovery...

    From the last pic on he was able to move under his own power. And I coached him through the process of backing out and onto the highway while a co worker and the tow truck operator watched where I couldn't see.

    This driver is a complete rookie, been out here for 6 months. And in his words... "I kinda lucked into this gig, they let me do a lease purchase. Which means I get to pay for this tow out of my own pocket." I really feel for guys like him that have had the wool pulled over thier eyes by trucking companies.
