    You know the look on your face you get when you go to a consignee that you've been to at least 5 times before and parked in the exact location you're parked in at this moment and some new dippy-do manager tells you that his employees can't park because you're in the way and you know you're not & the previous manager said that the neighbors who live behind the place complain about the idling truck and reefer running if you park in the cul-de-sac overnight so park in the driveway over to the left side? Yeah. I've got that face right now. Guess homey don't know I've been here since 5 pm yesterday. Another thing that's changed? They load their trucks first so my 4 am delivery is really 5 am. I was going to ask if I could drop the trailer while they unload and go to Walmart and get my shopping done real quick. I may still do it.

    Edit: Did get my shopping done. Had my list and was gone for an hour. Back long before they finished unloading.

    Thanks George. Sorry to hear about your dad. I’ll pass your remarks along to Lesli. Good luck with Perdue. Only time will tell with this buyout. The good thing is I’ve only got 3 more years. As long as thing stay somewhatvthe same, I’ll deal with it. Keep in touch and safe miles!

    That's my thought exactly. Only I've got a lot longer to go. I've been hearing/reading a lot of things drivers have been saying and all I can say is wow.
