Be prayin for ya Wombat.


Just got reminded why I am glad to be here, even in the slow weeks! Got 'trapped' by a guy who instantly headed my way when I parked...you know the look..15 minutes of how bad his company is, how you have to watch everything dispatch does because they're trying to screw ya, etc.. when I got a break, I gave him a bit of how it was here, that 'normally' dispatch got us a fair rate..., and got the incredulous "bulllllllcraaaapppppp" look...then I finally told him how much this run paid per mile...and he asked what about dh..when I told him, no, that's the rate per mile WITH the dh figured in, I thought he was gonna pass out. LOL..He asked what the requirements were to sign on, and I had to break the news that his short wheelbase E250 probably wouldn't cut it.....


:) Thanks John!

well ken thanks for all this info at least I know now & trust me to mention the other business , ! but reading this book the cardio nurse gave me I got to the page uuuuummm & read prior to being taken to the test a member of the hospital staff will check the site . and remove any hair I then thought hang on maybe I will do it prior , sure not over joy about some nurse with a razor in her hand sorry guys but that is like to close for comfort

There's no need to be embarrassed. They've seen it all. You and yours are just one more on a long list of that day's patients.

As for someone with a razor working around your junk, trust me, you'd rather have someone down there that you have no interest in. The last thing you want is any sudden movements. Boing! Whoops. Sorry about that. :p
