Well, Am Doing Well, I Must Say

Since we lost our driving jobs, I've been worried about money, of course.  But, in the overall scope of things, things couldn't be better.  My health has improved, I feel better and have a better outlook on life. 

After some personal things get settled, I'll be out beating the bushes for another driving job.  But, this time, I'm looking out for me.  It's just a job, nothing more.  I fully understand the concept of capitalism and the trucking industry, but, I'm an anachronism.  I live too much in the past and that's not good.

There are some local companies and I'll hit them up, later this week.  Actually, I think maybe this all happened for a better reason than I could have thought of in the first place. 

Thanks to all my readers.  I appreciate you and will keep posting!!  The focus may change a little, but, it'll still  be me and my imprint on here. 

Thank you very much.  Drive safe!!

See These Guys?? Actually, One's A Girl...



Anywho, since this puppy is going to work (yahoo!), here's da story 'bout the pic.

I saw these people in Chemult, OR a few days before I took this pic in Fernley, NV. Sitting right outside the Pilot truckstop. When I saw them in Chemult, there were in the rest area just south of town. First, one day they were on the northbound side and the next day, they were on the southbound side.

They have a dog and who can resist kicking them a few bucks for gas and dog food??

Me, that's who.

I don't have a problem helping someone who is truly broken down but not when they are playing a game with soft hearted Good Samaritans. Usually, I will buy a back of dog food or offer to buy them a sandwich, but, no way in hell am I giving them my hard earned money. You don't know where the money really goes.

So, I've become a hard hearted *itch and will give tangible items. Then it's up to them to find their way home or to other help. To play the game the above folks are doing, that's just not right. Well, they probably make more money than I!!

Just thought it was strange to see them "down the road". Heh...

Getting Loaded, Another Day, Another Dollar

This one of them, thar loads that drive me bats. A bunch of smaller pieces...and that means I have to use more straps to hold the damn things on.

Howsomeever, I have a job with great Bennies, a great company and plenty of money...guess I'll suck it up and not complain. Life is really good.
