for the past few seasons....... but will try to spread the cheer to other expediters..... candy cane supply permitting... *wink
Happy Holidays!!!

I think that is a really neat idea!!!! That has to be a lot of fun.

I think it would show even more good will to include all expediters as we are all out here doing the same job and with the same problems.

That's a wonderful gesture! I can't remember ever seeing a chocolate mint candy cane. Where did you find them?

morningstar55ny · Dec 6, 2008

lol ty........
i've done this for a long time...... ha
and as i stated........ for all expediters ..... candy cane supply permitting... hehe
now if i see the driver in there truck i just hand it to them........ but if i dont see them i just stick it to the driver window... lol
one time ...... i was wanting to put them out and it was raining....
was kinda hard to stick them to anything that day..

i am refering to the van drivers needing some love......... lol .. i always get the impression they are left out on the back burner most times.... or they are in there own lil group.... ya know....

I don't know if you put a note with the candy canes or not, but
I don't think if I would eat if when I didn't know where it
came from.. even if it was stuck on my window.. (just a
thought) Sure is a good idea though.

yes I stick it with a chirstmas gift label ..... says ...
to : panther driver ... from: truck 4962
and i make sure the canes are individually wraped.....

that is so sweet of you. It lets folks know that
someone cares..

TeamCaffee · Dec 7, 2008

I like the idea that you give your truck number as that verifies who you are if anyone would want to check or even take the time to thank you if they just find the cane!

Really great way to say Merry Christmas.

ha. tanx......
i like doing stuff like that......
i always have at places i have worked at.... and well took me a bit to think up something i can do out here on the road...... so i came up with that. ha

when i worked at a night club or warehouse.... i would bring in a christmas cake or set out a large box of loose candy canes.. with a holiday card.... to help themselves.
i need to find my sanata hat..... lol

im in nashville right now.... playng the waiting for a load game..
