    Not a bad day at work today, I was a little tired, but other then that everything went off without a hitch. I got back in time for the big safety meeting, so all in all it was a good day.

    Oh good gravy today was quite the day I made a couple moves that in hind sight weren't probably good or necessary. Ended up costing me time, but that's how it goes everybody knows. However at the end of the day everything all worked out, so I guess in that regard the day was a smashing success, oh well can't hit a home run all the time.

    Busy day today to busy days in a row. Working hard. Today everything went pretty smooth, although I was wore out by the end of the day, I was out of gas when stop 14 was up. I was tired and hungry and thirsty, but I got it all done and back in time for transit to leave early anyhow I better go to bed I have another early start tomorrow.

    Okay so today wasn't bad had a full schedule of stops, but case count was 624 or something like that so I had a couple nickel dime stops.
    Anyhow making good money, but ended up spending some real dough today and tomorrow. I haven't done much work at all if any on my personal car the past 1.5 years. Well that streak ended today. New tires all the way around and oil change $886.00 then come to find out and I already knew this my car need new ball joints uppers and lowers both sides getting that fixed tomorrow so they can properly align the tires that's an additional $545.00 or something like that.

    So $1,300.00 bucks put into it, but that's how it goes, you can only go so long without spending money I guess. To be fair though the old tires that were on my car were installed in 2012 and they held up really good, but there time is now over. The new tires are Kelly tires good for 55,000 miles which that'll do just fine for me.

    Exciting stuff going on around here!

    OH what a week high case count this week so good money week, some stupidities that happened along the way, but over all everything is fine, got yelled at on Monday, by some 4 wheeler because I felt the only safe place for me to do a delivery was to park in the street. Most of those conversations can be viewed over on the "Call an hour ahead of time" thread. Oh got yelled at yesterday by a 4 wheeler as well because someone had to wait because I had to wait for a check and was blocking them in. Well that's just to bad for both of us. Ehh whatever it doesn't matter it's all cool.
