    Well should I head over Cabbage now, or wait until it snows?

    Use your professional skills and good discernment as a good professional truck driver to decide that...:yes2557:

    What if it snows? It could rain, are you equipped for that? What is the OM’s opinion?

    The OM says the wheels must turn.
    There are treats to be paid for.

    Even just to remember what's important in life. To be a human being.
    I've become prejudiced while a driver.
    I've had too many whites. Completely wrapped up in their problems. One couldn't even look at him without him acting like he was going to attack me. Just plain destroyers. I wait unless a white shows me he's open to kindness. Then I'll say hi. Or small talk. Or whatever. Just being nice to pass the day.
    But the Blacks? They always remember what's important. Worst reaction I ever got from one from him having problems. He just said: "Please... not right now...this isn't the time." ... They always seem to remember what's important in life. I talk to Black drivers. Anything... just say hi. Small talk. Whatever...

    My experience is that people in general, in big cities are too busy, too involved with their own lifes and families and problems and don't care about others... besides, they are cautious about opening themselves to other people they don't know... We live in a dangerous world... :biggrin_1square1:
    But I find that people in smaller, country or rural towns are more open, more helpful, more friendly and such...

    Just thought I'd stop in and let everyone know I've bought a Corvette and got an 18 year old girlfriend. Life is good.
