    No, he bought the cheapest one at the local Freightliner. 2014/15 Cascadia. Drove 90 miles and needed a new engine. Bought it as is but they compromised and put a used engine in.

    Thus is the most work ive done in months... Its nice to know that I will have work placed within 20 feet of me. I no longer have to wander around and find something to do in order to "look busy." There is not a list of things that need done, but cant be done right now. I'm really enjoying be around the guys I work with on my line. My brother-in-law is my line lead, and the 2 other guys on my line are both fairly new to the company but forbthe most part know what they are doing. I have a mostly set in stone schedule. We get ALOT of paid time off without having to use vacation time, with the possibilty of getting even more paid time off without the use of vacation time if the entire company achieves certain goals... Which accortdimg to others, those goals are very resonably achieve.

    So yes, this was a good move... Its been a VERY long time simce my days have flown by so fast... LOL

    That is the most unusual compromise I have ever heard of.. Used engine ?$, putting it in $?. I'd hire him to compromise a death sentence, probably get it down to time served, less 90 days....
    Oh
    There was this guy who stuttered....sentenced to 6 months..
    Its been 24 months now and he still has not finished his sentence.
