My new adventure with PTL

Well, after developing a one-on-one personal relationship with Deputy Sal of the Kent County Sherrif's Office, I arranged for a local lawn care company to mow every 2 weeks, so I shouldn't hear from my "concerned" neighbors.

And I know the one who is 'concerned'...

 

I'm happy to hear it's not just me.

 

There is no legal expectation of privacy when using a company-provided asset, as long as they divulge that to the employee. That has long been shown to be valid in courts. Whether it makes good sense or not, well, that's a different issue.

 

I'm sitting in a Pilot that is significant to me and I didn't even realize this was the one when I picked it before starting out this morning.

About two rows behind me, in the exact spot currently occupied - weirdly enough, for reasons that will be clear soon enough - by a Heartland truck, was where I had parked my truck when I was working for a regional carrier 4 years ago. I had become a bit bored with going to/from the same places every week and I was checking out the landscape, so to speak. I wanted a condo and, as now, a truck with an APU.

About three spots down, there in all its glorious, muted blueness, sat a Gordon truck. I knew nothing about the company but I was attracted to the color and the APU hanging on its side, so I walked down and chatted with the driver for a bit.

Later that day, I gave their recruiting office a call and the rest is history.
