    Good morning driver's I'm waiting on Greg. Hope everyone has a good and safe day today. We just had rain no severe weather but it's moving east. So stay safe and alert.

    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    We had about 7" of really wet sloppy snow last evening/overnight, along with pretty bad wind. It sounds like there are quite a few trees down in the area, some rather large. Power went out at 4:26 this morning and finally was restored at 5:42 this evening. House was down to 61*, was beginning to wonder what I was going to do for dinner as there weren't many restaurants open in the area due to no power.

    So bloody glad I didn't have to drive in that shyte today!

    Morning all. Mixed precip today changing to all rain later. High of 48 maybe. Been slow at work, only 4 hours yesterday, used 4 hours of pt to get my 8. But that's ok as I used my time off to go pick up a used truck.
    Be safe drivers.

    So happy I’ve been retired since 2017 . 25 years of driving everything . 10 years delivering food to restaurants,hospitals,schools and everything in between which ruined my back . 10 years of dump trailer,flat bed ,walking floor for a soil company.3 years driving for a major supermarket chain out of New England mostly night time driving , full 14 hour shifts with 11 hours of driving and maybe 3-4 hours of sleep a day . Really good pay but not worth it . 2 years driving for a local lumber yard . Do not miss any of it :D Be safe out there !

    Not sure my back would be able to do it anymore. Thinking about loading and unloading for LTL. Or warehouse that way I can get off and walk around and only work 8 hours a day and not nights.
