Seems It's Time For An Organized Driver Boycott Of NYC

I know this is a somewhat old thread, but I have to ask. Why in the heck is New Mexico blue? It's surrounded(literally) by red. Anyone know?

 

Santa Fe

 

Because they're smarter in New Mexico

 

Hollywierd types moving and living there.

By the way, no need to organize a boycott, I am never going there anyhow. Even on vacation.

 

lol

 

Quit bashing the land of enchantment. Best buffet in America is at the route 66 casino. Easy parking for trucks at the Wal-Mart in Gallup. Beautiful scenery.

 

Wasn't bashing...I was agreeing.

 

Sorry!

 

Hmmm, I figured Albuquerque would be the one to blame. Kinda disappointed because NM is one of my favorite states to drive through and never had much problem with the people either.

 

Since this zombie thread got resurrected:

1.) home almost every night
2.) hourly pay
3.) having experienced both I'd rather drive NYC over Chicago, Atlanta, Dallas-Ft. Worth & DC
4.) my pay rate is higher.
5.) any customer that doesn't make parking arrangements with the city gets charged any tickets received.
6.) I know places INSIDE NYC to spend the night if needed. Yes I can LEAVE the truck and go to my sister in-laws for a drink or my mother's place for dinner. Or just hit a museum or show.
7.) NYC DOT cops seem to congregate in certain neighborhoods and harass out of town wagons, I go where trucks don't really belong and as long as I don't hit anything nobody bothers me.
8.) on the other hand I can blame the occasional broken mirror or sideswipe on "that other truck that hit me when I was unloading" (actually had a Chinatown box truck slice a hole the length of the trailer and the guy never stopped. Nothing I could do about it as I was inside the trailer when it happened and by the time I got to the back he was turning the next corner. It was a graffiti covered Isuzu with Chinese writing on the back, so you know, if you see him tell him he owes me $200)
9.) I could get another job tomorrow if they find out I'm willing to run "the Apple"
10.) guaranteed work!
