An old man's career goes flat, Snackbar moves to open deck

When I'd get onions in a reefer, it would be set in the 40s or 50s, depending on what else I picked up. Loved the smell when I opened the door!

 

They aren't as quick this week to route me to Wichita as they were last week. Got empty 1st thing this morning, told to head to the closest truckstop and hang loose. I was sure to fuel up before I delivered this morning in case the need arises for me deadhead home so I can get my optometrist appointment taken care of so I can get my physical out of the way...I'm sure that would go over well on driver depreciation week... after they were so generous with our driver depreciation gift, which I told my wife she could pick what she wanted because I didn't see anything I was interested in.

 

I’ll gladly take my driver appreciation hoodie. I came up with a few ideas for our new logos moving forward. I submitted them to our social media team for review. Rough drafts of course.

 

I can't stand pull over hoodies. The one they gave us last year, the wife cut down the front and put in a zipper so I would wear it.

I wonder if they would like my suggestion for a new logo

 

You’re a pilgrim that sees the glass half full. And, things generally go well for ya. Hmmm

 

I see a white SPD Volvo every Tuesday at Collins Aerospace in Jamestown, ND. She’s always pulling a conastoga trailer.
She’s running dedicated I guess.

Really nice lady, and she has a pretty cool German shepherd pup. She didn’t really say anything bad or good about how things are going there right now.

 

Better than chicken guts.

 

Finally got moving today. Just before noon dispatch called and tells me to head for Ottawa, KS for a tomorrow pickup going to FL. They were just putting the load in the system, so when he gets it he'll send it to me.

Picking up at a crane place going to another crane place in Tampa. The load info didn't have the loaded miles, but Google Maps says it's over 1300 miles, plus a 550 mile deadhead, plus I get 1 day of layover pay.

 

Just for you SSB. From my local neighborhood Facebook group. Referring to TN116

 

I would have liked to have seen them do an about face in that truck....
