He does go both ways. Sometimes he's a true blue Conservative American chap, and other times he's a Socialist Canadian chap.
you do realize you guys are more socialized Canada?....the U.S had social programs far ahead of time before Canada ever did.....I don't know where this idea of Canadians being socialized ever came from?...:)

I've been extremely luck over the holidays usually....but then again you have to be in the right location at the right time like usual....a long load now that delivers Friday and one Friday that delivers Monday?....Or a long load that picks Wed. and delivers on Monday....$$$$
There is a ton of people don't get Friday off....

I know it's hit or miss over Thanksgiving. In the 20 yrs I've done this I would say my success rate over Thanksgiving has been around 70% having some type of load that was delivered on Thurs. or Fri. and another load that delivered on Mon.

I see you put the things in a comfortable manner... to socialize is one (nice) thing, to be socialist it's hell. Well, one step away from hell, 'cause the next step directly into hell is communism...

And whats the "other Option"?....to roll the dice and maybe sit over all that time?....Maybe the driver can stop in and see family or friends and make the best of it.....or sit and whine about it for the next 5 days?....just saying...
