The Pneumatic Tanker Thread

#### I feel like I'm missing out I'm in food grade as well just not human consumption mostly for the pet food industry so I really don't won't the left overs but I still love what I do the only way I would leave is if the wife decides we can move south I'm really getting to old for winter

 

Its not often I go the the cookie place but the only thing wrong with them I can find is they are in the package upside down. Lol I deliver ruffly 250,000 pounds of flour a week an am 1 of like 20-25 trucks we run flour with.

 

It's more than I go where do you run mostly

 

We run 7-8 axle setups up here in the northwest hauling 32 tons per load. Flour mills are located in Spokane Wa and we run to Seattle, Portland, Eugene, and Bosie.

 

That would be a lot of work on my little kitty I hope the loads pay that much better for the extra weight and trailer not to mention the extra upkeep wear and tare

 

Im a company driver so I dont have all the maintenance headaches. And yea the extra weight is hard on the 450 cummins we have but the trucks and trailers are built for it.

 

Its times like this I realize how much I like my job. Been sitting at home the last two weeks. Collecting unemployment. Lack of work.

But I'm thankful for the break in the grind. I've been going nonstop since August, with the exception of the holidays. Soon enough, I'll be busy, and counting the days until vacation.

 

Look at it as an early installment on your retirement while you're still young enough to enjoy it.

 

Oh I'm loving every minute of this! Started to clear around the property lines today, there's fields all around my house, and the property lines are grown up with brush. We bought this place two years ago, and this was a project I've been threatening to do. Got the lawnmower started today after sitting since October. Had lunch with one of my friends from high school I haven't seen in a while.

So yeah, I'm loving this!

 

I'd be bored out my darn mind unless it was warm enough to ride my hog then some time off is good
