    Yea that load was to get me out of chi town, they know I don't run loads around here. Now they want me to go to Ecolab I believe he called it to pu a trailer, they don't know which trailer tho said I will be told their. Sounds fishy., it's another company's trailer, dropping at Gary oc. Whatever I said

    I witnessed a fight nearly break out between a couple employees the first time I was there. We (my first trip with a trainer) were sitting at that little office hut thing inside one of the warehouses and one guy makes an off color remark to another and next thing you know they're in each others face ready to throw punches. Got broken up by an older guy passing by on a forklift.

    Pssssst.

    Go to Superior. Lol

    That was one of the main reasons I never went to bulk there. They have the same trailer issues that dryvan does, then add the trailer washes and testing, ect. Nah, not interested.

    2nd snot load. Immediately pulled into the plant, yay!!!

    Stopped at Dukes last night, Canton, TX, mm 523. Cool place, as they have a knife shop with a separate shaving case and I am a shaving snob.

    I bought a case baby butterbean to replace my previous pocket knife that I gave to an operator who didn't have a knife, of course I advised him (made fun of, mocked, bullied, ect) and questioned whether or not he had a mancard.

    Anyway, I finally get around to playing with the darn thing this morning and what do I find? This is right out of the box, mind you.
    Isn't it cute?!

    Then this :( This is my first Case XX knife and in 30 years of buying knives I've never seen a blade this bad, straight out of the box and this is both blades. I'm going to eat the cost and not return it as I was stupid enough to not check the blade before I left, so that's my penance.
