How about I don't hijack this thread, but I'll tell you anyway. it's eh. I ran the East Coast until my APU died. I gave them (it wasn't Knight, duh!) a week to fix it. Company policy was one day to fix any APU. After ignoring my pleas, on the seventh day, I contacted them about where to leave the truck and went home. Not doing anything. Totally unemployed at the moment. I had a horrendous local class B job. Fortunately, I was terminated! My warehouse guys were jealous as hell! Why was I fired? I refused to do things that caused me to go over on my 11/14. I'd rather be terminated for that than falsify my logs. Still have my license and my dignity.

I thought everyone knew the legeng of Smaggs at Knight Refrigerated. Big bad Smaggs Big Smaggs Big Smaggs Every mornning at the mine, you could see him arrive. He stood 6 foot 6, weighed 245. Kind of broad at the shoulders, narrow at the hip. And everybody knew you didn't give no lip to Big Smaggs. Big Smaggs Big Smaggs Big Bad Smaggs Big Smaggs Nobody seemed to know where Smaggs called home He just drifted into town and stayed all alone. He didn't say much, kind of quiet and shy And if you spoke at all, you'd just said hi to Big Smaggs. Somebody said he came from New Orleans, Where he got into a fight over a Cajun Queen. And a crash and a blow from a huge right hand, sent a Lousiana fella to the promise land. Big Smaggs
Im reefer out of Columbus and I will say there is a amazing group of people up there. I like the terminal.
