Wow, what a February we had. Coldest and snowiest I've seen in 15 years here. Just took delivery today of a side-by-side with heated cabin and plow. It even has cup holders for my hot cocoa.

Been running solo since beginning February. Soooooo glad to not be team driving anymore. Even my civility has its limits to a point I asked to be kicked off the truck at the next truck stop in California in January. Even after that not much changed so I asked for my own ship to steer. Come late Sept I'll be applying for JB Hunt. Finish out my agreement with PAM so I don't back for schooling. JB has dedicated routes you can be home 2 days every week or make higher gross if you comes home every 2 weeks. Higher cpm .53cents compared to current .35cents and guaranteed wages for downtime due to no fault of your own. JB gives you a $10k bonus paid out over 10 months.

February was a rough month around here weather wise. Very cold, very snowy.

Work has been very busy, but I am growing unhappy with this company. They
are very cheap. do everything the cheapest way possible. They don't fix things when they are malfunctioning; instead they wait for something to fail completely before getting it repaired (when it costs more to repair)

When I offered the job I was told I would get a raise at 90days & at 6 months. I am now past 120 days-no raise.
My Supervisor is very childish (for a 40 something man) & does not seem to like me very much. (possibly because I know & insist on following Federal regulations )



I may end up looking for something else. Time will tell

Make sure you have a big pillow underneath that branch before you let go.

Well, that was close. Here we were, all worried for nothing about what the in-power Democrats were going to do. Nancy Pelosi just shot down a GOP attempt to amend a bill, and it was clearly against the 2nd Amendment. And...uh...wait a minute.......

Okay, now I understand. The GOP wanted ICE to be notified whenever an illegal alien tried to buy a fireman. Pelosi called it a "xenophobic" act and killed it. I guess it's the only kind of gun control they're not in favor of. And so it goes on. Democrats don't want illegal aliens to follow any laws at all.

My lil city Oberlin is sanctuary city. Former captain of auxiliary police said if tbey looked Spanish in anyway he had to let them go free even wreckless driving.
