    Would enjoy having coffee with you someday. Hope its not soon tho. Nothing against you, but just spent 2 1/2 weeks, running thru your frozen tundra. Was at the Swift plant in Worthington, so many times, I thought about buying a house!!! :biggrin_25523: Bet I went thru WI a half dozen times. Was never so glad to finally get a load to FL and let my toes thaw out....... and to finally make some miles and money!!

    You ever end up near Columbus or Beaver Dam, holler! We are about 3 miles from Columbus and about 15 from Beaver Dam. There's a truck stop right off 151 at Columbus that he parks at when home.

    This state does suck in winter! You are just calling it like it is! We are looking to move south soon.

    hey lilbit and nick--you will love this

    when i was little my babysitters husband used to play in a band--kinda a bluesy/big band era style--ok that was in the 60's----and now he is 91 and the band is still together and they go to the old folks home to play on sundays--the guy is 91 years old --but he says the old people like the music---he is older than the majority of them in there---and he just had to quit walking his 2 miles a day in the winter--too icy--instead he does it at home on the treadmill---i wish i was 1/2 the man he is

    A whole lot different then a patrol car. However they both demand respect for different reasons. Well I had to wait at the hotel from Fri to Wed. Then we drove Wed to Wed and then he brought me home last Thur so he could take his ht. We were suppossed to be out again by Sun. First in the morning, then I didn't hear anything til early afternoon and then he said he'd pick me up around 8pm. At around nine he called and said that we lost our load and that it would be Monday morning. Then he called on Monday morning and said that we again had our load and that he would pick me up between 9-10 pm and would call me when he was on his way. It's now 10pm and still no word. This sucks, I need to get through this training and start making money! Should I call dispatch or suck it up?
