    Monday morning in micro trucking.
    They only let 22 trucks in this Budweiser.
    They open the gate at 0500.
    I got here at 0300 and was 6th in line.
    BUT, I fell asleep.
    BUT so did everyone else LOL LOL.
    I woke up at 0520 and was the 3rd truck in. LOL

    Did another madman run with one of the hammers to Winslow the other night.
    When the office called I said what truck can I take? He tells me and says please make sure you park it exactly where it was cause the guy that has it, has been there forever and will throw a hissy fit for someone else driving it.
    So I parked it exactly where it was, but nose in.
    I'm so going to hell some day.

    Happy Thanksgiving Everyone.

    Just say NO to mega's.

    I worked 71 hours this week.
    My cousin said I'm a trucking w@#$e.
    But yet, I am not ashamed, although he could be correct.
    What does it all mean?

    I would like to ask which schnook left this in the dock area?
    For 10,000th time, please don't F with people's equipment.

    The boss kicked down a few Benjamin's yesterday as I was finishing up.

    Let me know when your mega carrier does that.

    He's kind of " In the loop " of the local trucking network, shows, etc., I ask him to start finding me a usable '99, we have several drivers that have very, very nice 99's, mostly Freightliner Classics or Classic XL's, he's a Freightliner guy, so that's probably what it would be, but that would be fine.

    For someone with such an avowed hatred of "megas" and their drivers, you seem to be doing a great job of letting them live rent free in your head.

    Well dude they are everywhere, just like flys***.

    I was going to post this in the clap thread, but since you would like to help, this is some bozo with total lack of regard for everyone at one of our big customers. 100 trailers in that row, look who can't even get theirs all the way into the spot. Just makes it harder for the next poor guy to back in, in the spots adjoining the that one.

    YO LORD !!!!
    Last February they gave my Dad a 20% chance to live.
    And for days I prayed the Rosary. Some of my friends & family did as well. Not that he be 25 years old again, just that he go with you, or he come home, cause the ICU is one of the very gates of Hell, and you certainly don't want to stay there.

    And it's been a long road, but he's still here.
    Your presence in the hospital was undeniable, even to the most staunch critics.

    YO LORD !!!
    I'm going to take him to play poker later today after we eat, cause that's what he really likes, and you may take him before he see's another Christmas, I don't know your mind.

    So Lord, I just wanted to say,
    YO THANKS LORD !!!!

    Another reason to just say NO to mega's.

    The doof at Schneider never sent my medical cert to the state. So today I get one of these---

    SO.

    I scan in all the pages of said long form, copy of wallet card. E-mail to ADOT. All good until May of '18.

    Now the lieing doofnuts at Schneider looked right at me, told me " All set, I sent it to them."

    Lieing POS mega's.

    JUST
    SAY
    NO
