    It should be 121 gallons plus what ever one eighth of a tank is. Tho this is presuming you didnt idle any and you also didnt let Opus syphon some fuel. Def should also be down 4 gallons.

    Yet you also didnt declare how much waffle mix you needed to patch the hole in the roof
    (Face book joke. A man paddles down stream 50 miles. How much waffle mix does it take to patch the hole in the roof)

    If truckers are employees, then what happens when you get sick? Do they give you something?

    A kick in the backside telling you arent sick enough and get back to work. Megas expect you to work through it. How ever if you lose sleep and are running a fever. As well as have a doctor declare your unfit to drive. Your DM might repower your load and tell you to get help. Tho if you take to long they will get you a hotel room and might reposes the truck and abandon you. Isnt driving fun?

    Wage and Hour regulations do not cover. the majority of OTR over the road drivers, or even regional drivers.

    Out of all the trick stop chains, which is the best to buy a skull. Fake of course.
