    They are in another lot right beside where you pick your truck out at. They have a bunch of trucks but the shop has not had time to go though them yet. They were putting more in the lot for orientation when we left. I guess there was a bunch of people who upgraded because someone said something about there being a bunch of new trucks there, and now there are hardly any.

    I just had that happen in October. What did JCT tell you about going back to work after you recover? I haven't tried to go back yet.

    I wasn't able to bring myself mentally to get back behind the wheel of the truck. So, I am no longer with JCT.

    I didn't feel like I would be safe driving. I have a genetic flaw that makes me more likely to form blood clots, plus, driving for a living puts you at a higher risk. I had gotten lucky the first time by not driving when I collapased. The whole experience plus my grandmother (she raised me) dying right after that really messed with my head. So, I decided to hang up the keys.

    Sorry to hear that you are having to hang it up. Hopefully things get better and you dont have to deal with any more clots. Best of luck to what ever your next adventure will be.

    You are doing the responsible thing. Nothing wrong with changing careers. I last drove in 2018 and my life has bloomed since then. Great career, almost done with graduate school, and just closed on a huge house this morning. You will do the same or more and find your happiness at home.

    Take care of yourself broham.

    So I stopped in Sapulpa last week to visit.

    So many new faces and some surprising departures.

    I was thrilled to be able to see Jen and many others.
