WERNER Enterprises To Lay Off 500

"Hero"?


It's the (slightly) faded purple cape and bright (but not hot) pink speedos I wear, ......... HuH?

Sad that it's twue,
Or sad that I wrote it?

Would you believe I have done that?

"ALWAYS"?
Hmmmmmmmmmmm

Thanx!

 

Howdy, Rick.

I'm gonna admit, right off, that I haven't yet read the link you've provided, ----
But based on your comments, I think it's wise to agree with you.

Well, ....... except for some truckin' companies knowin' "how to run a business".

I'm thinkin' many KNEW how, before the southbound economy, but now-a-daze, they may NOT (know how to run their business).
It's changin' day-by-day, now-a-daze.
I wonder if many truckin' companies can do what their drivers do?
Aim High and Plan Ahead.
Expect the UNexpected?
YeAH, Big truck truck drivers do that on a daily basis.
Some nine-to-five with weekends off, ----
And to others, ..... Saturday & Sunday are just numbers on
a calendar -----
All the same just different numbers/names ----
More for easy identification purposes on Bills-0-Laden, and log books.
I reckon.

Days are like miles -----
And it seems we all want more of both.
Who wouldn't?

I've said it before and I'll repeat ......

In the Big truck truckin' industry, a squeekin' wheel
doesn't usually get the grease.
NopE!
More often than not, especially these daze, ---
The squeekin' wheels get
REPLACED.

I hear doin' that actually SAVES a truckin' company's money.
And, ...... that right thar IS what it's ALL about.
If thangs don't make sense ----
By GollY!
Follow the Money Trail.

And remember ----
The truckin' industry is PERFORMANCE oriented.
Their drivers are no exception.
The better a Bttdriver is at dealin' with what "IS",---
And not dwellin' on what "IS" WAS and/or the way "IS" OUGHTA be, -----
"IS", IMO, more likely to see a glass half FULL.
Instead of nearly empty. Perhaps -----
Those are memories and dreams?
Nice to hang onto, but not necessarily the best way
to go about approachin' life, in general, now-a-daze(d)
and confused.
IMO....... (?).
Cowboy UP & Git-'er-done!
Ride the bull called "IS" ....... for the full 8-seconds ----
And y'all just might win the event.
Or, at least survive it.
And live to ride again.
I'm thinkin' consistency can take y'all farther than one big ride, -----
Which, in the long run, I think, consistency is preferable over flamin' out early.
Followed thereafter by frequent sub-8-second rides, and out of the money.

Those of y'all who want to get into Bttruckin' ---
be prepared to put up with what'cha'll will likely run into.
I'm thinkin' that once the better truckin' companies start doin' better ----
they're gonna notice who stuck with 'em,
through thick & thin.
Might be worth considerin'.
If y'all have a mind to.

We can't change what "IS", ....... really is ----
Even as hard as Bill tried to redefine "IS".
When he had no answer (he wanted to tell).

What IS, "IS"?
Hmmmmmmmm :smt017
For me?
"IS", is, ....... reality.
Is that ever AfterShocking!
It has been for me.
It's twue!
It's twue!


I take it in doses ---
Mornin' --- NooN & Night.
And if I lose that prescription for "IS" ----
"IS" catches up with me.
Sooner or later.
Imagine that.

How convenient IS that?
All depends.
Ya reckon.

Just a few thoughts that I think I thunk
And a shout-out to ~~~ RickG -----
For causin' me to think 'em.

 

Would it surprise y'all if I told y'all that I've heard that before?
More & More, these daze.

I mean, just 'bout EVERYtime I walk into a store
still in business,
SOMEone workin' there asks me ----
Can I HELP You?

So, I'm thinkin' it's becomin' pretty obvious, -----
More & More.

I just inform them all that I'm beyond "help".
And if they press the issue, ..... I explain that MANY
have tried.
and
MANY have failed.

Ergo, I've taken on the challenge of -----
Helpin' MySelF.
It's a learnin' process IN the process at this time.
Keepin' in mind --- the results could go either way.
