    The days are starting to shorten up , Suns no longer up at 430am anymore here. It's light out but the Suns not up.
    Looking online last night and think I will get me a pair of these to wear at work this winter .

    As long as it has swift written on it someplace, then it's really good at getting into places it should be and digging holes nobody else would think to dig.

    After all. They are first in class!

    Back at the house. Gotta wait until tomorrow to know if I sat on my ### enough to satisfy the folks at SNI.

    If I did, and I know I did, then I'll have a short-haul out to lithia springs and back twice. Should be fun fighting Friday traffic. Just glad I know a shortcut or two.

    On the subject of a job change...there's a concrete plant right nearby. But I think I'll keep looking. There should be something better by now. I've even considered fast-tracking my plans to move to Canada. We shall see. I shall pray and see...

    Ahh... Wiffle house. I always like their fiesta omelette.

    Fiancée and I split that and two wiffles.

    #1 went far west (Eldrige) to get a pallet 125# going to SDV.
    #2 grabbed a 135# Hazmat crate at Murphy and went to DHL Aviation. They didn't have a hazmat checker so they wouldn't take it. So back to Murphy where she began telling me stuff as if I could fix it.
    Took the #1 to SDV.
    #3 loaded a 70" long 1650# crate at SDV going to Industrial Terminal.
    #4 got paperwork at SDV Front office, went to Hazmat Packing and got two crates loaded in such a way that a DOT Cop would have surely had something to say. But didn't see one going to Qatar to drop.
    Then on to Industrial Terminal.
    #5 went back to Murphy for the same crate. Loaded that.
    #6 loaded a 77# crate at Murphy for United.
    Delivered DHL. Delivered United.
    Kept expecting to get Lobsters.
    But got home 6:45 without further communication.
    Ribs. Tater salad. Beans. Yum!

    No worries. I already called the plant. They want someone with previous experience to haul concrete. But would be willing to train if I happened to be the right candidate.

    Said he'd email an application, but the fact that I never got the email says enough. Dontcha think?

    Someone had a busy day it looks like.

    I drove a ready-mix truck for 11 years, probably would of retired from that job if I hadn't got laid off.
    After the layoffs the lowest seniority driver had 17years.
    Depending on what the local pay scale is it could be a good job
