Default xmas driving abd other thoughts

8) after readind several posts, i just gotta jump in with my own post. you regional drivers, thanx for doing a good job getting freight for the local drivers so they can deliver freight to the stores and homes. without you all my family would have nothing to buy or recieve for xmas. you folks do a job that i, as an individual could never be happy at , at this stage of my life. for those who want to understand our industry maybe they should learn history of the world. freight haulers were busy since the spread of civilization. without us civilization would of stopped then. we carry trade goods, knowledge, and everything necessary for mankind to continue to grow. me i will be away from my loved ones over the holidays. i missed holloween, turkeyday. will be away for xmas and new years day. i will be in tx for xmas, my birthday, laredo. i drop a load on xmas eve. guess recievers got to work same day. without a store clerk there would be no reason for otr drivers and all the rest of our industry. to sum this up, any job driving/hauling trade goods is an honorable job in this proffession. merry christmas you'all
