    Longer then some of my friends thought I'd last. Lol I got what appears to be a really good offer, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed it's everything I've been led to believe. I'll say where I went first week of Feb.

    Yesterday I loaded 48k of bleach in Longview and brought it back to the yard. Filled a couple of totes and put the rest into our storage tank. Unhooked from the bleach trailer and hooked up to my HCL wagon and preloaded it with 60k for today. Delivered that up to Hoquiam, came back to the barn, and parked it for the day.
     
    Bud A. and scythe08 Thank this.

    I also haul propane in the winter. What do you haul in the off season?

    I also haul caustic, bleach, clay slurry, leachate (out of one of the local land fills), #6 oil, and asphalt. Company also hauls a lot of other products, including dry bulk. I got a couple loads of caustic to do tomorrow. I work Sun-Thur. All I do on Sunday is caustic and/or bleach.

    While I love my glider, these older 12.7 can be a real PITA to get started in the cold! It's only 9 but she doesn't want to turn over.

    Still doing my Milk loads in Phoenix. 2 runs to Gila bend and back 4 times a week. 2 days, graveyards, then a day off, 2 days swings, then 2 days(in reality, barely a 34) off, rinse and repeat. Theyve cut our pay once and the boss says anyone he hires after us won't make the same. Even as far as cutting it by $60 a day. I don't even let it stress me anymore. I just do my load and go home.

    My apartment lease is up in April so I may move to Oregon, Tennessee, or Texas/Louisiana. I haven't decided yet. I can haul milk again up by Albany, Or. Or superior in Kingsport, TN. Lousiana/Texas, I may go back to L.W. Miller. The Texas terminal manager there is one of those guys where when he leaves a company, drivers will quit and follow him to where he goes. Hes that good of a Man and that good of a Boss. If I had known they were finally going to open the Texas division officially, I wouldnt have left.

    It's nice to have some options. God, I love yanking a tank! Wish I had done it sooner
