Second post down...but it will link you to the web site of the trucking company hireing...
But must have or be willing to get doubles or triple endorcement...

 

It's up there very high...elevation is over 9000ft....which means snow and ice and long winters....and probably very dangerious driving conditions...cause they are a 24/7 operation....

I can just imagine some of the roads the drivers drive on...the edges, the cliffs...



It's definatly a mining community and or area...



And you have to like cold rigid weather for most of the year...

And would definatly need a good support system of either family or friends....


On a different tip...
I just did laundry...

I'll be climbing up out of the Salt Lake Valley tomorrow...and may be out of phone and internet range for much of the day...no signal what so ever out there...

I feel cut off from the world when that happens...cut off from you guys here...my horsemen....

If something were to happen, I'd have no way of summening help...

If i stay with this company through the winter...I'm gonna ask they not send me that way...(ye right, like they'll listen)....

Anyways...time to chow down before I crash...

 

I must tell this story before I get going this morning...it just happened...

There were 3 younger homeless drifters or hippies, sitting in front of truck plaza...they've been there all night...

So this morning...I asked them if they were 'doing alright'...and they said 'ye...(with sad faces) we're waiting on a ride...hopefully they'll be here today...we're trying to get to ID'...

So, at that moment, actually before that, I decided I'd give them a little gift....either $20 or $10 dollars....In the end I went with $10.00....

I handed it to the one fella as I was leaving and said 'get yourself a good breakfast'.....

But here's the part that gives this story octane....

I walked past them into the store..to get the money...and when I came back out...a dude was there preaching to them about 'The Bible'....which is cool....

But they failed to take care of or notice their physical needs first...

I've been where those homeless drifters are before...and the last thing you need to hear early in the morning when your dirty and tired and hungry, is how 'jesus saves'....

I'm willing to bet they already know that....but their immediate issue wasn't whether or not Jesus saves, it was finding a ride to Idaho....

Just because they're young homeless drifters (2 males and a female), doesn't mean their souls are lost....

The difference between me and the preacher man there, is I knew that, cause I've been there...and have had people come up to me thinking my soul is lost simply cause I'm homeless or down and out...(to them)....

There's nothing I could of told those souls in 2-5 minutes that would have changed their belief system in God....nothing....but I garuntee you me giving them $10.00, to get a breakfast will have a much more lasting effect...

Where as the preacher man was just trying to fill them with 'the word'....I wanted to fill their stomaches with food...real food...

Yes 'the word' is important...but it's all about timing....

When i use to read the bible a lot...I noticed Jesus himself always took care of peoples immediate concerns or needs first, then once he demonstrated to them he cared, then they allowed him to 'preach' or were willing to listen...

Jesus always healed the sick, before he shared 'truth' with them...
He also always fed the hungry first, then he would share the 'truth' with them...

Many today, in the Christian realm fail to realize that simple principle...and simply use other people as useful props in which to 'speak the word to'...but really don't care about the person their speaking with....it's more like an excercise in faith for them, but does little for the one infront of them...

Feed the hungry first....take care of peoples immediate needs and concerns...then maybe they'll be more interested in what you have to say....

 

Anyways...I'm off into the desert...will probablly loose signal for most of the day...

Have a gigantic prosperious day until we chat again....

 

Well...I wish I were in this type of enviornment...but instead I'm at a 'dead' truck stop...all the drivers are asleep...

So I got my groove on by talking to cashier...told her she's the only conversation I've had all day...

It was fun...I was filling her in on what drivers use to be like, back in the day...

The truck stop I'm at has only been opened for a short while...very short while...

Friendly staff though...

Lady cashier told me she got layed off from other job do to 'sexual harracement' accusation...against a male!!

Boy, men are becoming soft these days...

Anyways...as usual...I have all my thoughts during the day, and by the time night rolls around...I'm spent...

Did some cliff walking today, went out into the desert again, and took photos of wild deer or something...

All the topics I wanted to talk about earlier...I'm to tired to now...

Some of them being...

1. The proposal to put cameras and bunk sensors in trucks...to see whether driver is sleeping or not...

2. Are truckers 'free' anymore...as I read another driver expressing in a trucker paper...
I'd argue not...expecially company drivers...your told where to fuel, what route to take, can't drop trailer anymore and go into town, your tracked by dispatch, tracked by broker, told when to be there, not asked what load you want...your just given a load whether you want it or not....are pre-assigned loads while still at home, so you leave when they want you to and not when your ready...
Told when to sleep, when to take break, constantly harraced by DOT and scales....

I hardly call that freedom anymore...

3. My mock Presidential bid...

Those were just a few items on my mind earlier...

And tomorrow once again I'll be out of internet service range for most of the day...how depressing...not internet, no phone...

For an expressive soul like mine...that's like torture...

The isolation of these trips is starting to over ride the benefits to me...

I don't know why 'god' made me this way, and then places me in an enviornment like this....why why why??

Anyways...next post coming up soon...think I'll upload at least one photo i took today...

 

Good night everyone...my inverter went out...so I have no electricity...so I can't upload anything...(oh I just want to cry)...

This job is just destroying who I am...it's like it wants all of me...all of my attention...all of my affection...

it's like this job gets jelious when I make friends...and does things to cut me off from them...like going into areas where I get no phone or interenet service for half a day, or like tonight my inverter breaking for no good reason...

This job is selfish...it want's all of me to itself...my time, my energy...

This job is beggining to become a bad marriage...



It won't let me be me...it wants to much of my time...
I need marriage counceling...

This job wants me all to itself tonight...cut off from the things that make me sane...

it has locked me down into the basement of lonliness and isolation..
That's what it wants...to keep my spirit oppressed...it cuts me off from the things that make me happy...

I have to go now...my job is getting jelious and telling me to go to bed...



They, it, keeps me locked in the basement...and chained to the wall...
All alone...

It's torture to me...
I'm kept in isolation...and no one's allowed down to visit...
I'll be in isolation for most of tomorrow...and all of tonight...

Only they can come down...
And offer me very little in comfort...
They bring their friends...(trucking industry) down to...and they all have their way with me...
But like always...I will break free soon...in the future...like I always do...I will run away....

Until then...goodnight...and I'll see you tomorrow sometime...

 

I come here with my head down...

I have 3 great horsemen....and I'm nothing in there presence...

They have seen and done things I haven't...

One mixes it up with...well I can't say....

Another was is a war vet....

Another is a grandfather...who has grandkids...

My 3 horsemen are real....real participants in life and society....

They mean more to me than you know....

I feel I let them down....I was over whelmed with duties...

These duties drained me of my energies....

I felt depleted....

But i'm a rebellious fool...and keep fighting back....

Sometimes i think I only exist in my own world...

I'm different...and have to accept that...

I post this...not cause I want to...but cause i told people i'd never run away....
