You ain't kidding.
My golden boy , that I'd pay to deadhead, is down sick. The guy I saved his number in my phone - (that good), is unavailable, but gave me my rear escort.
I call them individually before I go to the broker - she winds up sending me, well - anything that makes her 7% . . . . after I've politely complained about the actuality. Need to amend my strategy on pilot cars.... . .
The journey begins - purchased a truck.

My buddy keeps his best escort on salary.
Exclusive use.
Thats how he combats the problem. -
I’ve fired a few escorts, well maybe a whole lot of escorts, had one in tears too.
Crappy radio, missed turns, pole car without tape, the stories I could tell. Number one is when they start telling me how much they know, i have fired them driving when in a area I could get by with one.
I don’t tolerate idiots. -
Reading all of your stories about escorts makes me wonder if I should set up my personal pickup for escort duty just in case I need it. Of course that means I would have to find someone to drive it when needed. Could be just as much of a hassel. I dont know. just thinking.
Oxbow, blairandgretchen and Tug Toy Thank this. -
Best quotes from escorts,
While sliding under a low bridge in Philly “I can’t see but your ok”
Instead of saying “ getting close to a curb”. She says “you hit the curb”
Saying clear left and then after a few seconds adds after the red car.
Charging a day rate for three days when we were out less than 48 hours ( round trip)
None of these people ever worked for me againdouble yellow, whoopNride, RedForeman and 12 others Thank this. -
I'm sorry, I didn't know my wife worked for you. If you would have said she continued to stare with her arms crossed, I would have apologized for my daughter haha. The women in my life are great helpers in a LOT of things. Anything requiring understanding of projected travel or distance to/from objects, not so much.Itsbrokeagain, Feedman, whoopNride and 8 others Thank this.

I’ll need em. Bloody Johnny called in sick on me this round. That’s where the trouble began.

Oops - it’s been a while.
Repaired a step box that I’m asking way too much of. 8 chains and binders, and, obviously - stepping.
A piece of aluminum angle bolted to the side of the box, and through to the frame rail mounts.
Much stouter.PoleCrusher, Ringo1, JoeyJunk and 8 others Thank this.
