    SSN,

    We weren't fast or first but we always made it without any modern day problems. Also if you had to layover it was probably on a 3/4" piece of plywood and a pillow. Windows were down in summer to sleep and idle up to 1000 rpms and heater on high in winter.

    Spardo,
    That is so true. If today's drivers had to go thru some of our old timer days I wonder what they would do.

    You’re a saint. But there isn’t any making this guy happy. It’s like if Oscar the grouch drove for SPD.

    I don’t like what you have to say. It just amazes me that a grown man cries and belly aches over every single thing. You were given a wrong address so you just say screw it!! I ain’t doing it anymore. You had a computer glitch and you act like it won’t be fixed and you are turning into a pumpkin. SCREW IT! I quit!

    Geez if these are the most stressful things in your job, then life is pretty good. I shouldn’t have to tell a 60 year old man, but grow the hell up!

    I think he blocked me a long time ago so he probably won’t see this. I’ve followed his entertaining threads for years over the last dozen jobs he’s had. They always end about the same way. If he finally quits and goes back to pulling a reefer that will be a disaster too.

    Yes, he’s blocked both of you, so what’s the sense of continuing to post to the thread? One minute you’re singing his praises BM58, then as soon as someone points out his negativity you’re the first to chime back in on what a train wreck his threads and jobs are. Seriously, what’s the sense?
     
    mladen86, xlsdraw, TB John and 7 others Thank this.

    Yes I did tell him that we were glad that he finally found a job he liked. When SPD merged with his former employer he was convinced the sky was falling. He’s still employed so that didn’t happen.
