    Let's see XPO and Southeastern both showed up today. And had to direct to a dock to get unloaded. That's my extent of driving lately.
    Tomorrow is a new cold day o_O.

    Got the yard work done. Grilled some chicken and shrimp for dinner. Had a really good pear salad and brown rice along with a little bourbon. Good day! Now time to watch the Chiefs play. Been a fan since’69 when I was seven and they won the superbowl. Had one of those vibrating football fields with the Chiefs and Vikings the next year for Christmas. Anybody remember those?

    Got a notice from the the Department of Homeland Security that my hazmat threat assessment will be expiring soon. So! !!!! No longer needed so for the first time since cdl’s became a thing I won’t have a hazmat endorsement.

    Any of you old guys remember what our license were called before they became CDL’s ? Seems like here they were called chauffeur licenses. I know that I was grandfathered in when they changed to CDL. Seems kinda odd because I was so young then lol.

    Yes it was,
    funny story: we were working remote when the switch came, we sent all the paperwork down to the boss to fill out, he signed his name only & sent them back (was only licensed as class B) boss says he don't have time just fill them out & send copy's of our new license.

    I looked at my partner & went class A, class B, class C, class D.
    My partner said "you can't do that" I said boss told us to fill in the blanks.

    Studied on all classes & passed.
    Free class A!
