    The paper was given to me by Stacy in Safety. I was just passing on inportant info. I think Hudson_MacBeth supported the info.

    The correct procedure for Walmart parking is to call ahead and speak to a manager. When I take home time in North Texas, I have approval to park at the local Walmart. Locations will vary.

    Lunch time is over now. L8ter.

    That statement is in direct conflict with the posted sign in Wytheville... ;-)

    Thus why I ignore "pieces of paper" handed down from person to person... If it's official I will wait for someone to officially respond to me.

    And thank you for passing it along...

    But...

    I will use all the tools in my toolbox and not willingly "limit" myself until required to do so.

    If you wish to do so, that is up to you... But if I need it to complete a run that hit unforeseen issues, I will pull that tool from the toolbag.

    And yes, our trucks are limited to 68 mph and I use every mph available to me, even when the speed limit is 65... I was stopped in Albuquerque for doing 2 MPH over posted and, after a Level 1 inspection, got a warning, but not for speeding.

    And out west, I have been known to coast a bit to get up to the speed limit too. :)

    Just call me a Rebel... LOL
    Shhhh... Don't tell ok? ;-)
     
    Friend Thanks this.

    I think the note posted in Wytheville is specifically for the Wytheville Walmart.

    I usually drive 60 to 65 unless I'm in a hurry. Trying to get better mpg in the summer since my idle time is insanely high.

    Smart girl to run Brooklyn at night... Much better than attempting it during the day.
