    The only real bad place out of Indy was 70 east. I know because I was there.
    Everything else was smooth as a baby's behind

    Yeah, I was right there when it was starting, I ran out of it for about 10 minutes until for elog safety reasons, I had to stop so it could get caught up tonight. :(

    Any time you don't fit the "norm", modern hiring will toss you out before you get anywhere. The trades are STILL a "who do you know" game.

    In your shoes, I'd make a list of the smaller contractors, down to one man shows, and see how many of them will let you buy them breakfast for a chat. If they don't see how you can make them money, one of them will know someone who knows someone who needs a guy like you. Keep connecting the dots, and you'll find the place. What you really need is a mentor in your corner that can connect you with folks in the trade, and tell you what's really wrong with you. ;)

    That's a thing of beauty.......

    I used to have a view like that, spending my workday in the company of meat.

    Talking about meat, wrapping meat, cutting meat....sigh.

    Darn shame it doesn't pay worth a frack.

    I have omnitracs now. I want my KeepTruckin back!
    So easy to use, updated quick. Just plain worked!
    Have to agree, best one I have used.
