Happy New Year Memories of Last Year

I just got back from Boston after visiting Aunt QAgness 83 years old and diagnosed with cancer. God Bless I Got searched like a terrorist! Patted Wanded and Questioned. Oh well at least I look tough! Love you America! Truckers Keep Trucking Things Always get Better

Here are a couple of the most memorable moments from last year. I spotted a truck that was about to finish fueling at an island. It was quite obvious the driver would have to back up to get out, however he did not realize he would not make it, and pulled forward hitting the curb by the pump and almost tore his fuel tank steps of the rig. He then tried again to go forward once again and blew out a tire. I guess by then he had it figured out. Last I saw, looked like he was calling dispatch.

One other memorable episode this year was when a trucker pulled his trailer over a 5 foot post, the ones that protect the gas pumps, just in back from where the landing gear sits and dragged the post almost back to his tandems ripping the whole bottom of the trailer out. Fallon who was the cashier stated she almost got run down when she ran out and told him to stop his truck and he did not.

News of Haiti earthquake God bless them PLEASE.

Merry Christmas Arrow Employees

I heard that yesterday 1200 truckers working for Arrow had their paychecks bouncing and fuel cards shut off without any notice. I do not have the details but this is a dam shame if it is true.

A Day With Sorrow

Went to Terry Lee's wake this evening. He worked as a fuel hauler for over 20 years around Nashville Tn. I met Terry around 5 years ago when I obtained a position with Swifty gas. I started out with Terry as my trainer and he helped me obtain all my fuel hauling cards from the various terminals. After 2 weeks I had to take over his position as lead driver because he had back surgery. This has certainly been a year with many tragedies. Snoopy also of Swifty gas was killed in an accident with one of the fuel tankers. This has really touched home because Terry and I had spent a great deal of time working together and he was a great person and an absolute expert at hauling fuel and only 3 years my senior. God Bless The Family and Rest in Peace my friend.

Heck if it works If it works for me it can work for anyone. http://gary-communication.blogspot.com/
