    I always put in for detention, what I no longer do is query the amount I got paid as I have figured out that I won't get a definitive answer.

    Yeah. Never realized I had a bad habit of relying on the jake to slow down in unneeded situations until I realized I was staying off the brake in my car and getting upset it wasn't slowing down fast enough. Now I don't even look at the jake switch until I see a mountain slope ahead.

    Never have I seen so many cops in one day as I did yesterday. Seems to be the whole country, they are swarming!

    I had a PM done in West Memphis recently. Great folks and service there. For the first time, this new truck is not leaking oil out of its filters, Richmond has failed to fix the issue twice.

    They did install some cheap wiper blades, the one on the drivers side was streaking from day one. I swapped them out the next day. Now they are both junk after just a few weeks, going to buy some new ones and try to get reimbursed.

    They also put summer windshield washer fluid in the reservoir. We found this out the hard way in a snow and ice storm. Poured a bottle of alcohol into the reservoir, but that was no immediate help as the lines were already frozen.
     
    Redtwin Thanks this.

    I'll swap you those boring miles for this pretty scenery as I know which one pays the bills. ;)
