"maybe" is right WW, what's stopping you?
I seem to be the only guy in the whole Tampa Metro area that can actually FIX a lawn mower. Right now, if I left in a truck, I'd have half the lawn-care guys chasing me down to get something running. (Only takes about 5 minutes to clean out the fuel jet in the carb.... For a small nominal fee... Like $20)
And, with some of the new regs from DOT, I don't know if it's worth it anymore. I've been out of it long enough that I'd have to take a refresher course, (which, I'm sure, would mean a contract with the company) and I just don't feel up to doing that.

i see what you mean windy, why jump into the bottom of something when you're doing well with what you have? there's always a trade-off, mine is hours vs pay and i have no idea if schneider tankers would pay enough to offset the hours away from home. and if you add in the possibility of having to start at the bottom after 25 years running the midatlantic states including the city, with NO whining i might add then i agree, "i just don't feel up to doing that"

at least you can fix things, all i can fix is dinner.

I won't forget how hard it was to pry Windy out of that last truck.
