I ain't sayin' it's right, but that's probably the reason why they didn't give y'all a raise. They know that folks would give body parts for a schedule like that.

You nailed it! That has been brought up a couple times, so was "we gave you another new truck"
So what? I don't care about the trucks age as long as it's legal.

and the trade off is….
There is a saying where I live, "a view of the Bay, (lake michigan) is part of your pay."

It's the same deal for drivers who live out away from the cities.
Our pay is a lot lower, for the privilege of living where all the city dwellers want to vacation.

You need to shoot off some high flares at night so I know where you are across the lake.

Sorry to hear it, repete. But, I think I may be in the same boat. Won't bore anyone with the details, cuz this is YOUR thread. But... you know... nothing lasts forever. Sometimes, it is just time for a change.

Go ahead Hobo, don't ya know MISERY LOVES COMPANY? If only I was born rich instead of so good looking.
I got a call back about a good job I'd love to have BUT (always a but) they didn't have anything here in Rochester for me but do out of state and wanted to know if I'd relocate. HA! I wouldn't mind moving out of New Yorkistan but I got to much crap to move! I'M TRAPPED!
