    I had one round of antibiotics, but it only helped a little at first. According to the test results, it isn't any of the usual bacteria culprits...so all the antibiotics in the world won't help.

    At least it isn't a Wylie thread...yet...:rolleyes:

    We may have the misfortune of being partners with Wylie, but they haven't taken full control of us just yet. However, with my experiences with Wylie and their management thus far, I would advise anyone to flee from any association with that micromanaging nightmare of a company...and by that I mean, run away from them, don't walk.

    I need to learn to pay better attention. When they sent the load info last Friday, I was thinking that it picked up this morning...got up, was in the truck at 4:30, went on duty for my pretrip, and also was writing down my load info in my notebook...and noticed the load wasn't supposed to be picked up until tomorrow. I went back off duty, went back in the house and got back in my jammies and went back to bed. It's only 5 hours to the pickup location, and the closest truckstop is 30 min away, so there would be no reason for me to head out that early just to sit at a truckstop that long.

    This is a bunch of bull hockey, the last dust collector was painted to match my truck. BC40C0F4-7C9E-4512-9AA5-7A0EB0F28BE1.jpeg

    One positive about getting old and senile is, you meet new people every day....over and over and over...


    @kylefitzy, remember when we were loading that saw mill equipment and I noticed that one corner part of my plastic bumper was loose? (where the twist lock OD flag goes)...well, in today's winds coming thru GA it is now MIA...not sure where it disappeared, but when I stopped for fuel in SC I saw the open hole behind where it use to be.

    Yeah, that would be my story too! Just kidding it’s a plastic truck, they fall apart. Most of our volvos have at least one unpainted bumper piece.
