    You are here *points to maps drawn by preschooler* you’re gonna go here then hook a right then hook a left then when you see the curve you gonna follow it and it’s the building right by the blue sign. Then you go in cause I have a walkie but I can’t page or call them cause I’m just security.

    “You gotta go through Chicago”

    “Unloader/loader just went to lunch”

    Have you been here before? You gotta watch this safety film from 1979

    Pickup numbers don’t match... Dispatch: hmm that’s weird give us a moment we’ll call you back.

    When a receiver gets in your face and screams that this load was supposed to be here last week, why are you late! This happened to me in NJ, I wasn’t late!

    When you break down, and the broker asks:
    "What's your ETA?"

    I had the wonderful luck of being born the right time that I could still witness the old paper ways of the ww2 generation in their silver years and the slow transition to the modern technology that exists today. Unlike the youngest generations born right into it, I can fully appreciate the old and new way. But as I’ve crossed out of my 4th decade, I find myself leaning toward the old ways and considered a phone such as this, though I fully know how the modern ones work.
