This is ridiculous. Picked up truck last night. Didn’t make it a mile. Drive shaft fell out. Still problem with air. Tow truck driver told him this time; Definite air problem.

I didn't want to jinx myself, so I waited until I was sure but my coolant loss issue has officially been fixed. Seems as though the shop my company uses in Abilene who they paid $1,000 to block off the EGR 3 months ago, didn't actually do the work.

You should see the construction company turned cement hauling outfit that I ran for for a time here in this state. They did not let you do a #### thing. I once walked out on a monday meeting after telling the entire outfit what I thought of them when they managed to reduce me to holding a cup of coffee doing nothing on the clock the first month. I was not going to be back.

Someone stepped up and stuck me into a 4 wheeled front end loader to move rock and sand. lo and behold they found something I was very good at. It wasnt too long I left them anyway. You either fit in or you do not fit in. Until then I had to show them I mastered a variety of things anyone could do. One example was being a batch man building cement at the computer workstation driving the tower outside pouring concrete to order into the mixer. Off they went to the jobsite. Everyone quietly hung by the main telephone expecting a real big boss to summarily fire me for doing a bad job that I was not trained for.

The call that came in congratulated me on making good concrete. That broke the ice. When the boss found out he could not stand it. This nobody new hire daring to touch his stuff and actually batch out to retail order concrete. Its not difficult. What was the problem was in the south you mind your place is how they say it around here. When you do not mind your place then you are to be excluded for being uppity and so on. Well by scratch or hook I managed to make a name for myself there. They will remember me long after I am gone. What am I to do? between yankee stubborness or southern incompetency of minding own places... HA...

God must have had a laugh when he created me.

You ask anyone that knows me, I don’t “mind” diddly squat. You want the job done, I’ll get it done. If politics is more important, get some kiss ### to do it.
