    Mine tried that tactic with me, and it didn’t work. We ended up at Twin Peaks and for some reason she was really quiet the rest of the evening. :D:D:D

    Dude all things aside, obviously the atmosphere is great, but they actually have really good food!

    Finally got rolling. Actually, I was supposed to move to Savannah yesterday. Toledo sent my travel agent a message telling him to move me to Savannah, but Einstein wasn't in again, and nobody said a word. So the drivers aren't the only ones kept in the dark by a lack of communication out of Arlington, the planners are as well. I got a text message from Toledo this morning asking if I was ok and why I wasn't in Savannah. She wasn't happy when I told her that nobody said #### to me. She said go ahead an head that way, but before I could put the last of the clean clothes in the truck, she said to head to Livonia GA instead, she had a load to Wooster OH that loads Wednesday and can deliver Thursday.

    So, I called the recruiter and said set me up for orientation on Monday and make whatever reservations that are necessary for a Friday departure out of Toledo, OH.

    I can honestly say, that's a side of this company I won't miss one bit. They could have inside info about when the world is coming end and they wouldn't say a word.

    That seems quite easy. As long as dispatch isn't full on tards

    I guess this is the truck driver version of arts and Crafts time. IMG_7779.jpeg

    Another thing you can invest in is a Health Savings Account. You have to have a High Deductible Health Plan, though.
