So here we go again with yesterday's schedule, all over again. 
And it's Sunday.
Seems like I work most Sundays, a thing I would love to see change.
But, Sundays are great days to drive in terms of traffic and driving through
Houston isn't any fun no matter what type of vehicle you are driving.

sending me notification a month and a half ago and then another notice that it needs to

exam done, because getting your CDL reinstated is, I have heard, no short process and isn't
worth it. 

Okay. Off to the races. Hopefully not a repeat of yesterday. 

 Sunday - early 20 minutes until departure time.  I don't much care for delivery on Sundays for it takes a while to get security to the ...
