    Funny, not the Terminal manager, but the Orientation guy. The lyric, is from "Willin", which was written by Lowell George from Little Feat. Linda Ronstadt covered it on an album, but alas, both probably before your time. Good luck.
     
    Marky84 Thanks this.

    In New Jersey today. Heading for Kansas. Up to 165 hours. Need 5 more backings. Did 8 at the Virginia terminal and another at the reciever here at the Costco dc. Mentor takes good care of me and stuffs me with food and soda and water. Can't complain cuz there's notin to complain about :) gonna be sad to leave him when I'm done. Wish I'd had him from the start, he says so too.
