    On the other side, I just got the message and am rolling in about an hour. I'm at home, but gotta roll. Short home time..1.5 days. Maybe I'm crazy, I don't know....just trying to retire. Rolling soon.

    Sad but true. The primadonna crying to dispatch that they doesn't feeeel safe is making more money than the guy that says I'll do it and losses time getting the hard job done as the primadonna drives down the road making money.

    That's why it's good to weed out the primadonnas, cry-babies, and slackers. If you don't get rid of them you wind up having to send your best drivers on the worst hauls because the problem children will either screw them up or spend so much time complaining that they poison the whole crew.

    Or you could become the most famous driver by hitting as many things as possible in one day and then just quit. At least you’ll have the most hits in one day record for as long as the company is operating.

    Jokes aside, I hope you land another job that pays well with good benefits. Everything in life is just a test, it’s how you react to these situations that separates you from the rest. You made a mistake, sure maybe a even a couple of mistakes. But they stop becoming mistakes after the first few.

    Really look into your situation and honestly ask yourself why do these things keep happening. Everyone has the answers to their own questions but we chose to ignore them. Never rush things in life. If it’s written for you, you will get it no matter what. If it’s not written for you, you will never get it no matter what. Most drivers, myself included always tend to rush because “If I hurry up and back up, I can unload faster which means I can get another load faster which means. . . .” If you start your day like this, everything will piss you off and in the end you will still get caught up in bad weather or traffic, or as I like to say traff***. Be safe driver.

    I think somewhere along the line I would be replaced some detail along the lines you laid out. I wonder sometimes.

    However it's all good. Its really hard to find good honest stock in the wheel these days.
