I am a firefighter with Chesterfield. I'm doing local runs part time, started a few weeks ago. Not as much money as overtime, but something different for the mind to work with. I have seen the changes in the local PD force over the last 11 years and can sympathize on a change.
Good luck here, and the owning family are hard workers that built this from little to nothing. You treat them and their equipment right you will get the same back.

I'm back in the good old USA!!!! Of course the only hiccup was coming back into the US. They charged me $13.05 to cross back over. When I questioned what the charge was for the nasty old lady with the gun on her hip, that hadn't been out of its holster in probably 25 years, told me that if I didn't like it, I could stay in Canada, at which point I politely told her that if I did that, I would have passed up a golden opportunity to engage in a lively conversation with the nastiest border guard I have ever dealt with in the last 38 years. She got huffy and told me to have a good day.

You are a far braver man than I. I make it a point in life to never get snippy with anyone carrying a gun.

Welcome back @JohnBoy
What's with these border guards? Least they didn't tear Ur truck apart like with MidWest and ethos
Where to next? U guys havea safe one -
The part that I thought was funny was the guy that told me about the fee could have just collected it from me and let me drive away but instead, had to drive the truck around a couple buildings get out of the truck to find a door to stand at a window to wait on some guy on the phone ... To then pay the fee.
I guess everyone else uses a toll device to pay on the fly? But if one doesn't cross the board often I can't see that being useless.
And why the .05??? LOL -
It was her turn to buy lunch this week.....
