    Hose searches are a PITA.

    I hope you have 2 3 to 2 inch reducers. If you don't have 2 ask for another onE the next time they are out of 3 inch hoses at a terminal. The standard set of fittings only gives you 1. You can make 2 inch hoses work on a 3 inch customer inlet with 2 reducers.

    Yonkers WWTP is the second worst place I have unloaded. First was a pump unload in Brooklyn where the only way out was to back the wrong way up a 1 way street, 151st to be exact.

    I got a sefond 3 2 reducer from axis. Told dispatch was only way unless we find more 3" hoses. You can keep that nyc stuff. I go any where else.

    You are set then. I don't know why they don't issue 2 to start with.

    You will get that nyc stuff every once in a while. Scott told me he looks at how long it has been since you have done one before putting it on you. Whoever has the most time since doing it draws the short straw. Out of terminal drivers get it too especially if they live in the North East. Its that old dispatch you towards your home terminal policy.

    Note to self: Do not move to the NE.

    I went to Brooklyn once. It was the most nerve wrecking thing I've done by far.

    I only issued a southern truck. It does not fair well up in the north east! Seriously though I do not do well in really stressful situations so if I never see Yonkers and any other place up in the northeast I will not be heart broken.

    Sitting down here in beautiful Miami getting unloaded at the moment. Great place to come deliver. Probably make it back to the GA state line this eve and finish driving home tomorrow.

    Call me crazy, but I love going to New York City. Seriously, I think it's fun. I just wish I could get more of those runs...
