Zen always remember that little thing called karma....it can and will come back and bite ya.

 

Somewhere near the Alamo--this has been one of those weeks--whirlwind tour of every horse#### grocery whse across 7 states--well everybody gotta have their time in the barrel I guess---good thing I ain't new@this---BUT--the New rules and payplan round here really makes it tough to swallow
Course nobody to blame but myself--if I wasn't so set in my ways I could be doin something else---just can't bring myself to drive ANY of the new trucks out there--&the whole DEF thing just annoys the hell outta me--let me get this straight--you want $4 a gallon for fuel and then another 3bucks or so for some different fuel???Hmm so what's next A dollar a pound for CARB compliant AIR in my tires?

 

That's the way I thought about a new truck as well 'Olhand! I'm glad I sold mine when I did and didn't get caught up in buying a new one.
I had a slow start to this week, Monday was the thanksgiving Holliday up here in Canada. I didn't go trucking but worked all day in the paint shop at my brother-in-laws business. Boring work sanding and prepping parts for painting but at $20 cash an hour I don't mind too much!
Tuesday I worked in the shop on the farm getting three trucks serviced and ready to go for the rest of the week. Yesterday was 2 loads of dry fertilizer from Portage la Prarie Mb to Winkler Mb. Today is the same then 1 load Friday. Going away this weekend fishing in Ontario so doing a half day Friday to facilitate an early escape!!

 

Michael Landon thought his mules were adequate for haling products down the road in Little House on the Prairie too
you antique you

 

Actually, no. As long as we had been waiting, he was most likely out of hours too so I'd much rather keep sleeping.

Turns out to not make much difference. The mill went down and nobody bothered to tell us.

 

At co. terminal. They are performing PM on the truck and a few other things. I am supposed to watch 10 videos from ATA about safety and answer 10 sets of questionnaires.... Very "tricky" questions... But there's another driver watching the videos right now... So I will wait till he is done and then will try to take my turn.... if I am still here. I need to take my notes at my own pace... take my time... I am slow... Safety said all drivers must have this done by the end of the year.... So, I better have this done today cause I am not planning on coming here again before then... and I don't want to come here just for that....

 

It's just cat pee. Chew on some Meow Mix, and use that DEF tank fer a urinal... that oughta do it!!!

 

Will be out of co. terminal tomorrow. Truck got a lot of love tender and care.... and two brand new steer tires today... tomorrow morning it will have front alignment done and mechanic will finish brake adjustments. I am just finishing watching the Safety videos and answering the questionnaires. Cooked my meal... then will go to bed and will sleep good.... There's nobody here at the terminal.... Woke up at midnite last night.... ran all night.... almost 24 hrs up...
