    Still at work, last pick up of the day. Work 7 am tomorrow. Or ING. I hate working Saturdays
    I'll have 50+ hours after today, that's enough for an old man.

    Exactly my thought as a wrecker driver, tie that bish up and supply air then off we go.

    Saturday morning, just want to get it done so I can have what's left of my weekend.
    Be safe to anyone that's working today.
    I gotta swap trucks at the end of my shift. My p.o.s. is back from service, fingers crossed its fixed this time.

    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    Forgot to release the brakes and poor clutch release skills.

    At least an easy repair.

    Computer problems and configuring the new things kept me off line.

    Everyone had bad days .

    He will never admit it but when the truck did not move he romped on the go pedal.

    Oh yeah he won't admit it. This is actually the second time hes done this this year. Last time it destroyed the axle. We had to replace it and it was like a $10k mistake.
