    Merry Christmas I've been off for 3 weeks go back to work on the 30th would've left the 26th but hunny wanted to spend the weekend with me no problem told the boss I'll leave out the 30th and get rolling again. Even if I as running I'd be home for Christmas. I don't care its family time and my butt is going to be back at the house.

    Yep on our way in now be there by 1900. Told my dm the pressure was on I promised not just my wife but my students wife we'd be in.

    Theyre deadheading us 435 miles from pitman, nj to the house since there weren't any loads coming that way today and asked us when we wanted to go back out and we're preplanned back out on our schedule.

    Now that's the difference between a good gig and a bottom feeder hehehe

    We are going out tonight. Will be back home this weekend so our truck can get it's PM.

    Don't have a whole lot going on at home so we rather be making money. The things that I need to get done, I can't because the places are closed for the holiday.

    We drive for US Xpress & are company drivers.
