    Many many years ago, I went on a run, called home and wife said don't come home the locks are changed. Like you I had no idea. I had 2 kids and was totally in love with her. It was by far the hardest thing I ever went thru.

    My advice, you have to keep your head above water. It was very hard for me. I am not a people person, but if you need someone to talk to send me a PM.

    That was like 32 years ago, Now I have a great wife of 30 years, very close to my adult kids, and also very close to the ex.
    But for me that was a very dark time in my life.
     
    Flightline and 281ric Thank this.

    It's like mourning a death....but you survive it and eventually get over it. In the mean time do things to take care of you because you're the only one in this situation you can control.
     
    281ric Thanks this.

    Sorry about getting off subject. This probably was not the place to put my problem.

    I am thankful I've got a good company like Mercer which told me to take all the time I need. No pressure there.

    No comments on subtle changes to the load board? Distance to shipper on main board shows air miles as always. In detail of load (advanced search) it is pretty close on miles from your location to shipper, road miles not air miles. I'll still always check deadhead miles myself but this is a much better number than before.
