8 degrees in Alpena, not sure about the wind chill, other than there certainly is one. It's gonna be a couple more days 'til my truck's ready and that's O.K. I'm doing a good job of making sure this couch stays on the floor and the fire keeps going.
It is still legal. I use the DDL program to log and it will automatically put consecutive days off on one page. I've never had a problem showing that to an officer.
That kind of sounds like your looking at it in a "zero sum" kind of way, as if that revenue were gone you couldn't replace it. Wouldn't keeping the thousands it will take to make your truck compliant and running freight to other locations be an option?
The coach is important, but it's tough to blame all the turnovers on him. All the individual pieces of the puzzle are strong. I say keep the team intact and see what happens next year.
