    Best wishes, man. I go to the Dr's next month; I'm actually going to request a stress test. Thanks for the info....I'm so glad you ARE home, and in fact WERE home, when you had your wake up call.

    Rest up~!

    I had a great talk with the owner of the company this afternoon.
    I was thinking they will see me as a liability after I'm cleared to drive so I brought that concern up with my boss and the owner.

    It was a shock what response I got!
    He said do not worry about a thing...period! I will get full pay while I'm out,Anything I need to get through the next couple of weeks no matter what. They will pay my 20% of the hospital bill that insurance does not pay and anything else I need including medication copays and all.
    He asked if I needed my lawn mowed,groceries or any help with anything!...I was just speechless!

    The guys in the plant also offered to come mow my yard or do anything i needed!

    What a blessing to be a part of these fine people! I'm still in shock...lol!

    Good deal. That should ease the stress anyway. Take it slow and get well.

    You are fortunate, you are blessed. Some of these "smaller companies" really care about us, man!
     
    EZ Money Thanks this.

    Yes they sure do! I hope to retire there for sure!
    That conversation really made my day and makes you feel like a very valued employee.
    This company is doing things right! I doubt they will ever have a driver turnover problem as we grow to more than 2 trucks..
     
    G13Tomcat Thanks this.

    We have 5 active, 7 total... LoL. None of us are going anywhere, but ..here! Y/W man. Thought about you long and hard yesterday; I lamented in many threads. Keep YOU first; you are blessed, as am I.
    Off to bed for my 4 hour "nap" before the road.

    Be safe, fellow tanker, first and foremost.
    Tom~ :)

    @EZ Money glad to hear you made it.


    I've been quiet for the last couple of weeks. Vacation and everything. Dam truck broke down the second night I had it since the overhaul. At 2:30 in the morning while I was sleeping no less. $1,250 later, outs running good. Had nothing to do with the OH.

    My dedicated run is in a slow period, so I'm either getting days off or doing misc runs. Got a 3 day weekend now. It's 5:00 somewhere right?
     
    EZ Money, G13Tomcat, 19d and 1 other person Thank this.
