    A friend of mine does local mail runs. On holidays he gets paid to drive to the sorting center in Baltimore, go around the block, then back to VA. All at time and a half. Best days were the mornings of the curfew, nice wide open streets and a cop every 100'! Lol

    I'm not sure when our government was ever at it's best, it's had many opportunities but wasted nearly all of them which is a shame. my $.02 :(

    The government always thinks about votes. If I do this how many votes will I lose? How many votes will I gain? Plus the fact that if they have something most people want they will start adding things nobody wants. Then they have to discard the whole thing because of what was added on.

    Truer words were never spoken, and that is the problem with the government they want their hands in everyone's pot by regulating and governing the people to death and they are too blind to see it, or refuse to see it take your pick. I'll get off my soap box now I don't want to hijack this thread for something like this. But it is frustrating to say the least.

    Gave up my hometime this week to run out this pay period. Took a load from Richmond yard yesterday and dropped it in Romeoville Illinois at noon. Now sitting at the Markham yard waiting on a swap from Groveport going to Tualitan Or for Monday morning. I'm pissed, I'm going to come up about a grand short of breaking the 70k mark. Oh well, it was a tremendous year anyway, even if I did have 5 different DM's this year.

    That's just lovely. Guess security at Markham is a little lacking.
