Monday what a start

malthom · Sep 9, 2013

Started my morning on the Dan Ryan. Lovely Chicago rush hour. Why do they call it RUSH HOUR? We all know it takes longer than hour. Now just north of Indy at the Flying J. So happy the morning is over. My week can only get better. All be safe and hope your morning was better.

We have a diverse group here on EO. Tell us about yourself. Who do you drive for/ and what do you drive?

I'm pretty much an out and back guy driving a small cabover.

I'm rarely out overnite as my deliveries are never more than 125 miles away.

That must be nice...going home overnight.

I agree with Highway Star; "cute as a button".

I forgot to warn you about a few, but that's a moot point.

Not sure about cargo van business but we do very well in our D unit. I would suggest calling Phil in recruiting and ask, he will give you real answers. You could even ask to speak with other Van drivers and get there opinion. Like every company there is good and bad but for the most part we are pleased being truck owners with Try Hours. We drove for someone first and were treated good as drivers also.

I am currently in a TT and trying to talk my wife into getting her class A but a D unit might be the compromise.

Almost everyone agrees with Star - besides the fact that he's usually right, he is bigger than most of us, and we're not completely stupid. Still, I think you're confusing Ragman's truck with your dog's nose, [understandable] and Star with me [not!] because I said Ragman's truck is just the cutest little thing ever - and it is, lol. I'm sure Star would have said it [it sounds like him] but he's pretty quiet lately. Maybe someone should resurrect the 'whizzing in his cereal' photo, and then the OP can see what a really bad morning looks like, lol. And what kind of people he's fallen among, all innocent & unaware....
O - welcome, Malthom! Got any photos you want to share?

Thanks for the kind words Cheri, the check's in the mail. Just for the record, I did make the "cute as a button" comment. I mean, just look at it! You can just picture Papa Smurf behind the wheel.

After extensive research I found that you both made similar comments but in different threads and 7 days apart.

So we're even now, for the time I told your Dispatchers they didn't need to rush on getting you out of Laredo, cause you were having a great time down there in Boys Town?
