    The minute the words of "ordering the parts" exited the mouth of the service writer, my reply would have been, "call me, I'm outta here"

    Another lesson learned. Three weeks out and at least one weeks worth of sitting. That doesn't feed the bulldog.

    TA doesn't have breakdown pay? Call in and ask for it anyway. If you never ask the answer is always no.

    6 it is. He and I already spoke. He's gonna get them in Laramie Wy. I was giving him a hard time yesterday. His second load with the company and he's on his way to the Northwest. I was here 6 months and couldn't get past the big muddy if my life depended on it. Then I realized why, he's got my DM, not my old one, what a difference.

    Northwest, huh. Still haven't seen that area with Abilene & I've been here a year and a half. But, winter's upon us, so I'm happy to not be seeing it now. It is beautiful there, though, and I do miss hitting a couple of the truck stops out that way.

    As for me, right now it's all about taking care of mom. I'm not sure when I'll be back. I'm hoping at the beginning of next pay period. Depends on what the Drs say next week. She's got appts Mon, Tue, and Wed. All this is wearing me out!! Need to get back to work to get some rest! LOL Not to mention $$$!! At least I've still got her around, so the money can wait. It was a bit dicey last week.
     
    gntorres61, Lonesome and JohnBoy Thank this.
