    They probably start at 6 too. But electricity is what I was always told for closing early.

    I gain possession of that key first, then sneak truck off property. Walk back get permit lady for the necessary stuff for it.

    Fuel and gone with a load.

    Hoefully it will be a few days before anyone realizes that I possess a new truck.

    Here is another line.

    [Safety examined the engine computer in some detail going back weeks. Dispatch had been issuing BS times to be somewhere.]

    Fast forward to today Safey sitting across from me

    "You cant be that fast"

    Data shows beyond proof that the truck is indeed fast.

    Here is another, this time from dispatcher.

    "Central Oh to Jersey 3 and half hours, you have done it before. Now you are late, what's the problem?"

    What she did not know was down by the Junitia river I had to sit and nap 2 hours. There is common white line fever and then there is the kind that gets drivers killed. I had the second kind.

    That was about a week before I left this company.

    Another sentance.

    "You cannot leave this company. We take advantage of you too much"

    If that is not a admission of abuse I don't know what will.
