    AH I think that this may be pointing to something I may not have made clear. I have a wide range for temperature I am comfortable in. Ran most of one year without A.C. I am fine with sleeping when it's up to the high 80s/low 90s. I did not idle much :dontknow:.

    Lol. Yeah it's a business model thing for sure. I run the south east in the summer and Midwest in winter. Opposite of what most do. I don't stop sweating until the temp drops below 70.

    I have to be able to get into my sleeping bag and sleep while in the direct sunlight in July in the Southwest.

    Badly spoiled.

    I take my dog out on occasion and he is a hairy beast. Would bring him more of it wasn't for the hair. Anyhow, he can lay in the floor in the middle of August all balled up freezing to death, until he finally jumps in the bunk with me asking "why in the f is it so cold in here"

    A guy called asking about employment. He was one of those that was kinda angry. Kinda angry, new all about Landstar, and more about trucking than I do. Which isn't saying much, cause I think that's just about everyone.

    He sure seemed mad though.

    Doesn't sound like a winning strategy for trying to sell yourself to someone lol. Probably why he is still looking for a job lol.
