Anytime, hope you find whatever it is your lookin for.

 

Hauling potatoes in a reefer trailer sucks real bad. It's all fun and games until you look in your trailer and find a million little potatoes in between the grooves on the floor. Using both end of the broom for an hour and a half to get them out

Can't complain too much. This week has been a little frustrating. Keep running into delays at shipper/receiver. Am sitting at delmonte in Kankakee, IL at 2:30 am, on a 21:00 appointment that was supposed to deliver at 05:30 in Tomah, WI. Don't think so. I was at the south holland yard today and watched another England driver trying to uncouple trailer, instead of letting air out of drive air bags, was hitting switch for rear drive axle. Also saw an armchair setting right on the centerline of I-65 going south between Gary and Indianapolis. It was like someone had just been sitting there and had just went to grab a beer.

 

Was home for 5 days end of April, am going home for 4 days next week. Love being around my family, fiancé my 2 kids who are teenagers, and her 4 kids who are older, youngest is 17, and of course her grandson. We've been together for 5 years, not married but we might as well be. What sucks about hometime is that your check will suck. Made like $126 last time I went home. side note, my brother is on his phase 2, got in 1 trip, then 2012 Volvo they drive turbo broke and was shut down for a week. Things like that can happen, all just part of the fun.
