I'm sittin here at work dealing with a load out of San Diego, CA. They won't release our trailer to our driver with out a bill of lading number. the trailer has our name plastered all over it, same with our truck. The driver has told me he has quit and will not deliver to Toronto but will drop the trailer in Kansas. I'm hoping for the big 649 win so I can walk away from all of this. My wife and kid's are at home enjoying chinee food while I'm slugging away at the office. I WILL SURVIVE!!!!!!!

Hey guys, hope ya all had a good day! I took my ktm for a nice long drive out in the country, and after that the wife and i hopped on her quad and took it out off roading for the rest of the afternoon.

I then proceeded to make the best home made burgers ive ever had! Threw some chopped up bacon and cheese in them, and damn they were good!

Grant, that sucks you have to deal with all this stuff on suck a nice day! I never have quit a job out on the road like that and left a truck somewhere, but had a buddy do that one time. He was so fed up with th company he worked for, he called me up from port coquitlam (I lived in chilliwack at the time), I went and picked him up, and he hired me to drive him back to saskatchwan the next day!

I was working in the oil patch at the time, but had days off, that was a damn good paying week!

Finaly got the trailer released, calmed my driver down, he'll go to Toronto and come home. He's an older fella 66 yrs old and set in his way's. He's gone all winter to AZ. and comes back in the spring. He need's money and has to work in the summer and we accomadate him, I just told him: If you owned the truck, what would you do? Problem solved! off to home for cold chinee food. talkto you all later.
