    Yeah some were told to leave and others left willingly. There’s still quite a few left though.

    Update: Just dropped off a load to our terminal in Pennsylvania. Hoping to get another load today or tomorrow going either further south or east or west basically any direction we'd want to do.

    Quitting smoking is going really good, i'm able to fight the urge with the Nicotene Gum. Looks like we might get a load out early tomorrow but probably not tonight so we're probably stopping at the terminal tonight and headed over at about 5 or 6 to go pick up whatever load they give us if anything.
     
    farmerjohn64 and G13Tomcat Thank this.

    Super glad to hear~! Dang doctors put my wife on 'chantrix' a few years back; found out it was 'Wellbutrin' in disguise... OMG worst year of my life.... that crap made her crazy (ier!) << no, seriously. She now takes these capsules called Kratom that help her quit smoking, somehow. She can keep a pack all week; only 'needs' one when the kiddo pulls her chain.. (or me, haha!) Glad it's helping, for sure.

    I'm a gum chewer by nature...and I eat wintergreen lifesavers by the bag, not the roll, when I'm driving. Never WAS a smoker, but just like the 'contentment' my mouth gets from either gum or those L/S's.... keeps me awake if I'm sleepy'ish also~! ;)
