Are we getting home for christmas?

Very much home for Christmas! Preloaded with 2 pcs of ltl 4000# that pay as much as the lumber I usually take down. It will sit on the deck for 2 weeks

 

I will be flying from Iowa to montana for a mt lion hunt on Christmas day. Good enough for me.

 

Already here a week earlier than planned. Going out 26 th till ? I’ve got a good feeling this is the year I’ll get Rich Trucking. Happens every year around this time after doing the numbers.Lol Keeps me going!!! Enjoy family and friends savor the time.

 

I enjoy having Christmas at the Petro.

 

Christmas Day is my last day as a company driver I’ll work it if I haven’t made it to the yard. My decision, not theirs.

They’re keeping me close

 

Got off at 1700 today, go back 0800 wednesday. I only have one driver that is running over the holiday. The rest of the fleet is already home or will be by saturday morning. My 1 guy thats running is already booked oyt til Wednesday. I will be on call in case he has any issues, but I dont forsee any.

 

I wasn’t planning on being home but the rates were crap in the Midwest so figured whatever... I’ll go home take the rest of the year off lol

 

I’m hoping to get back midday on Monday traffic permitting. Then loading out again wed. So far I-10 has been a cluster

 

Lol reminds me of my old job as a golf course greenskeeper... Us mowers used to ask for xmas day and turkey day off ..my boss reply was always "grass doesnt take holidays off" ... Now that i look back on that, #### him lol

 

Ha! I did that once myself.

2nd week...we had a hurricane. "I get tomorrow off?" "Nope, someone has to clean up the course so everyone else off can play." "sonofa..."

Walking to work that morning after the storm(I lived right next the third hole) was a lot of fun let me tell you. Lots of wind, take one step forward get blown back 2. Good times. Benefit...I could take the golf cart home, and to the brew-thru next to the course. Ha ha!

You folks at home...enjoy your down time. Those of you that will be out...be safe, and while early...Merry Christmas.
