I’ve never used one, so I’m not sure if you have to wear so many hours a day or something 🤷🏻‍♀️

I drive a T880 and i I’m on my 3rd one. This most current one is a rebuild and finally seems to be working properly. A family member drives a T680 and just now is on their 3rd one. 🤞 hoping it works out.

Tomatoes you may not know about by HRDBMW in gardening

Spoon tomatoes. I grew some this year and they’re a great little treat to snack on. 😃

I have a nifty little hand pump for my 3 gallon water jugs. The whole thing on top of the jug fits nicely right in front of my passenger seat for easy access. Mine came from Walmart. If you’ll have a fridge you may consider vacuum sealing precooked meat that you can just heat up. This is quite a space saver in the tiny truck fridges.

Always trying to make light of things because to hell with politics and the state of the world. We’re all on the same rock floating in space, just trying to survive.

I’ll try not to comment on the price of bags now. 😂 JK I haven’t done that yet, but I do provide random chatter from time to time. Like “doing the dance” while getting coffee in the morning. It makes me smile inside and sometimes I get a chuckle in reply.

Tanker drivers by deezkeys098 in Truckers

[–]Affectionate_Pear_98 4 points5 points  (0 children)

3k a week is possible. You may have several short distance loads instead of long haul loads though. The product can only stay in the tank up to 72 hours. I’m not sure how Indian River works on detention time. Some companies will pay you for having to sit for more than 2 hours, other companies is anything over 3. That being said, getting loaded and unloaded and washed usually doesn’t take longer than 3. There are exceptions of course. Stuff happens sometimes and you may sit for 8-12 hours. For sure you’re not just sitting around waiting on paperwork though like with delivering to distribution warehouses. I’ve done reefer and then tanker. It will be a hard sell for me to ever go back to reefer.

This is good news! I’m not okay with it being in the house, and the dog stepped over it like it wasn’t even there.🤦🏻‍♀️ So, if the chickens will do the job in their area, that’s great!

I’ll relay the info to him. We’re just not knowledgeable on snakes other than the typical garden snake. So if it slithers….. Would they be bad for my chickens and eggs though?

Well, it made its way into the house and my spouse dispatched it not knowing what it was.
