    Going to to be stupid hot today. Grass is too wet to mow.
    Guess I better come up with a new plan.

    We have those annoying “pansies” where I work too.

    There are a few that stay close to the yard because they don’t have the gonads to run 2 1/2 hours away and run a route. Because of that, we start at 6 AM, while the ninnies all start at 9 or 10.

    Now here’s the issue.

    One of these guys will see me punching out at 4:30, which makes a 10 1/2 hour day and that’s quite enough, and raise hell because he might have to go back out and do a drop and hook somewhere across the street. Yet those same people would never man up and put their name on a high mileage run when one opens up. :rolleyes:

    4000+ a week ain't hard... I did it just a few weeks back.

    Idahofalls, ID... Memphis, TN... Jackson, MS... Great Falls, MT... Idahofalls, ID... 4300ish miles

    Left mid day Sunday got back to the yard just after dark Saturday... and still had over 3 hours left on my 70. I've proved the pansies wrong more than once, if they don't believe it's possible "They don't know WTF they are doing, you understand that!!!" to quote a prominent figure in thus country... lol
