    If the flatbed crowd are the supreme rulers in backing why are so many of them parked against the curb at a truck stop every night? Even with plenty of open spots available. I’ve pulled vans,flatbeds, and tankers for 42 years and have never figured that out.

    725 miles today, and still had 20 min of drive time left. Looks like I will have just enough time to make the delivery, but I talked to the receiver, and he informed me that his forklift driver doesn't work on Fridays, so he was going to check to see if he can get someone else to unload 5 pallets, still haven't heard back from him yet...I said give me the keys and tell me where to put the stuff, I ran a forklift loading chickens at my 1st driving job...but that was before OSHA required operators to be licensed.

    I’m practicing my “think skinny” routine today. I’m leaving in an hour, someone getting woken up. On my way to WA with a container that took 6 hours to get loaded yesterday.

    I hear mr @supersnackbar might make the elusive 14,000 mile club if he get that stop delivered by Friday. I’d say it time to ask to move to the Salary+bonus pay structure.

    Has anyone ever used the Skype app? I broke another phone, and I don't have my spare so I have to use my tablet as a phone. And the only app I can get to work is Skype (Android),,,

    I have had the same Galaxy 8 Active for 6 years now, never used a case with it. It has been bulletproof. It's a shame they don't make it anymore.

    I love to toss it in the air and watch it bounce on the concrete floor at Sam's club when the pesky ATT salesman trys to get me to upgrade. I then pick it up with no damage and ask the salesman what phone they offer now that's comparable. They dont have anything. Seems all current phones need a case.
