    That’s one heck of a deadhead. Did that once for a havertys load. You’d think someone would be a little closer, huh?

    Delivered a load from Farbest Foods to Boar's Head Forrest City, then got a load to pick up Mack truck parts in Byhalia and deliver them to Jacksonville. Stopped at that little truck stop place that's about a mile down the road from Volvo Byhalia for a pit stop.

    Came back out to the truck, and it won't start. The information I have at my disposal suggests that it's probably the starter, but I'm not a greasemonkey so I could be very wrong. Anyhow, called breakdown, they called someone to come fix my truck, got an ETA of 90 minutes.

    Two hours go by.

    Phone rings. It's the service dude.

    He can't get his own truck started. Said he was having to heat the engine block and charge the battery, and as soon as he could get the service truck started, he'd head my way.

    I'll take "Things Which Do Not Inspire Confidence" for $400, Alex.
