By the way, i never did, nor have i ever used any type of drug to stay awake, or to run hard like i did. I do not drink any type of alcohol either. It was done for the shear enjoyment of the job, career, and the job. Some of it may have been due to my own ego, as in i wanted to know if it could be done.

Produce is such a pain in the ###. Something gets rejected for some stupid reason, then you gotta fool around and find some place to take it.

That's the old days.
You will sleep by day when the logs tell you to, and you will sleep by night tomorrow when the logs tell you to. Subject to being interrupted by the whole world at any time.Farmerbob1 and Dave_in_AZ Thank this. -

Night time is the only time to run. Less cops, traffic, scales, and heat. Shorter flatbed loads used to take a good bit of the daylight to unload and reload so it was easy to drive at night. With my hopper i had no choice but to run when the places i was going were open, usually daytime for the short stuff. With the reefer now i do my best to do everything under the cover of darkness

Heat is why I want to run days and sleep when the sun is not directly overhead. My APU doesn't keep up if it's sunny and above 95
NoBigHurry Thanks this. -
I run during the daytime, due to the better scenery in passing cars.LOL
intrepidor, kemosabi49 and Farmerbob1 Thank this. -

Nights , I'm a night owl.
I can get the best night sleep a person could ask for and still be lethargic on day shift. I freaking hate day shift.
I was always up all night even as a kid as far back as I can remember.Farmerbob1 Thanks this.
