I don't think my day could get any worse
 
First thing this morning I go get my truck out of the shop just to be told that the only place my truck will be going is to the main office. My poor truck needs to have the motor completely rebuilt along other things that they are going to be working on. So my truck will be down for a month, and they have no spare trucks for me to drive till mine comes back up. I guess I will have to find someone else to drive for. Ok I am done ranting.

Why won't they order a rental truck for you?

Why not make a claim for Unemployment? That is if you still want to stay with that outfit?

Good luck with that. I got laid off from my job of 10 years in February. Unemployment was going to pay so little, and cause so much BS that I didn't even screw with the paperwork. I think it capped out at $346 a week. Whoop T.

YMMV and all that of course.

What B.S. ? I filed my claim today 1 five minute phone call and I was all set. Not taking advantage of what is offered then why should anybody put anything in?
