Not going to look back. My checks are huge gonna miss the money but it’s not even worth it. The fun days are all over. if the job becomes so aggravating you only acquire ulcers and high blood pressure ; then the money no matter how good isn't worth it. only thing good money will accomplish is providing a nicer coffin. don't know if many jobs in todays world if legal are enjoyable . 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74165-my-friend-my-friend-we-out-here-doin-it-again/page/2/#findComment-551960 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ELDs, video cameras, GPS, Google, and pictures. End of the day downloads of all the surveillance equipment. You were going too fast at x:xx pm! Why did you have a hard brake?! Why did you go that way and not this way! What took so long at store #14?! Why didn't you take 4 pictures of the trailer when you hooked up?! After 48 years it wasn't any fun any more. .....Hippy 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74165-my-friend-my-friend-we-out-here-doin-it-again/page/2/#findComment-551964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
