    I'm happy for ya, man. I know from the 'other place' it's pretty much what you were meant to do; me being just the opposite..... i'm set in my skin, here...tank you very much, LoL~!

    Stop by and say hi once in awhile; I don't chat much with the f/b guys all due to that "boxes" thread, but we'll let that one lie / die. LoL.

    Congrats again, man. Hope to hear all the goodies in a couple weeks, be safe, man. Hope you had a great Dad's day yesterday, as well! :)

    Finally got my equipment issues situated and got hoses and fittings from the shop. Got nice and shiny compressor and ready to haul some other stuff. Dispatch asked me if I can help out with oil load tomorrow and he will hook me up with a good paying load Wednesday.

    Yeah, a lot of the reason I went to tanker when I got back was that I don't want to tarp any more and it's really tough to find a flatbedding job with no tarp. Hunt was closest, about 20% tarp according to the recruiter, the rest is equipment. But I see their trucks with tarped loads a lot lately lol. This place doesn't even own any tarps.

    The boxes thread just about put me off posting here at all. The other place is a little bit tiresome at times, like listening in on a convention of earnest Sunday school teachers who shush any naughtiness. And then there are the nice kids sucking up and turning it into a circle jerk. But that's better than watching a bunch of middle school bullies compare their *%£& lengths. "You can run but you can't hide" was just weak and pathetic. Seriously, get a life guys.

    So yeah, I might just go back to posting some pics of loads along with occasional snide comments to make the girls laugh and get in trouble.

    I hear ya, on the not wanting to tarp; after what you've come thru, I don't blame you. Heck, I personally have no desire to learn how, O/S can HAVE all that; I'm not much younger, LoL.

    The other place reminds me of Catholic school; I know what you mean there. I'm "read only" as I've mentioned; I'd probably get myself into trouble should I have it any other way, LoL... like I almost (no, really ... i did...) on the BXS thread. I'm one of the most level headed guys out here, but that pedantic crap towards the kid was just TOO much. I have kids his age. It was unwarranted; I had to step back for a 48 myself, after that.... and raiding the Rt turn thread, when we went back there. Just wow.

    I'm glad you decided to hang around here; and I'm happy you found your "sweet spot". Keep posting pix there; you know I'll check 'em out!

    TTys, man.
    Best to ya!

    All our loads to this customer are drop and hook. Most of them you have to meet a plant worker at the scale where they check seals and pull a sample. It can be as long as 45 minutes sitting at the gate sometimes if they are on break or busy.
