I normally don't say much on contentious topics but I have to point something out that everyone misses here.

The worry about this virus is not the mortality rate, it's how infectious it can be.

If it were to run rampant, that miniscule percent of people who need hospital treatment would flood out the capacity and then there would be unnecessary deaths simply due to lack of access to care.

Logic and understanding at last.

Yeah caught a pair of knockers on the cover out of the corner of my eye. There is a whole display case full of these magazines. Probably 30+ a lonely trucker could have himself a ball .

I'm in Ham Mound, loading up for the Triangle Of Pain.

Like I said yesterday, I was late before I started this morning, and didn't make up any time.

Between construction (even on the surface streets around the tankwash) and every 4-wheeler ordering the Family Size Bucket Of Stupid today, my nerves are shot. And I'm hungry, but as soon as I start making a sandwich, the loader will come down the stairs to ask me a question, and I'll get in trouble for eating in a "no food allowed" area.

I just realized that it's been almost exactly six months since my last road trip with Missus Skillet. Might have to pick a destination and go. I can't wait a full year between breaks anymore.

Also those two local jobs I saw on Indeed keep playing on my mind........

So.
We is loaded!
Woman at shipper told me I had the wrong trailer.
Told her I didn’t, I only own one right now.

She said I needed a dry box, to haul bulk... parboil rice...
So.
After a moment of telling her that wasn’t right, and her arguing, I realized I was dealing with an idiot.
So I walked to truck, called broker, then a another 5 minutes go by, she came out and said she “found” my load number, I gave her.

Walk back inside to be told she would not wait on me without a mask, so I told her all Hallows eve wasn’t her yet.”, I’d be outside when she was ready.
So she took my info again, then made me walk out and take a photo of trailer tag, though I have it memorized, so she could “see” it.
I told her she just walked passed it a few minutes before, she should really see someone about that memory issue, as it will get no better in the future.

She proceeded to tell me she didn’t have any issues, then she looked at me long and went to say something, but me being me, and a quick thinker, I ended that real quick, as she already handed me my paperwork, so quickly, I came back with, “No, sorry, I can’t meet up with you tonight, my ole lady is in town, rain check Friday night? I’ll call ya, buh-bye.”

I did notice some heads turn.
I know, that wasn’t right, I am ashamed.
