    Now now no need for that level of desperation. Perhaps counseling.

    Yep... This week I have been running nights... So my 11/14 have been ending just about the time most drivers are starting thier day. So nice to not worry about parking, and be able to run my 11 down to 5 mins or so, to maximize miles.

    i got so tired about 1 year ago after running all night to a jobsite up to albaquerque . took me 10 hours and 50 minutes of drive time to get there . my 14 was shot by the time they unloaded me . i PCD all the way back to the flying j on west side of town. i lined up to the parking spot all the way in the back of the lot and my brain shutdown. i couldnt figure out which way to turn the wheel .and took me a good 20 minutes to hit the spot and there was 15 open spots on either side of it . couldnt hit any of them LOL

    Just sprayed for wasps under my house since I have seen a bunch coming and going. Holy crap! There must have been hundreds of them under there.

    Probably a good thing I didnt get into that first spot... Some dink just pulled in and parked in a "build-a-spot," effectively blocking at least 3 or 4 trucks in that face the side of said dink. SMH

    Absolutely.

    Trainees would practice around lunchtime. They’d get the hang of it. And then they’d have to park in the middle of the night after they exhausted driver hours and you could literally smell the panic. Hahahahaha!
