So, my manager, this time, kept his word and actually gave me a run to Brownsville for today.
Yesterday - I drove the rest of the way down to La Porte after spending the night in a small truck stop in Seven Oaks, unloaded, drove back up. Almost got to the yard and was informed that the trailer I am pulling needs to be preloaded and would you do that please? Sure, after spending 2 days on a nothing route, I might as well make a few extra dollars to help boost the numbers. With a bit of dentention pay at the plant, that was an extra .. around $140 for 2-1/2 hours.
Trump and his wife have acquired COVID-19. It is being reported - widely actually - that people are wishing him death. I don't know what kind of spiritual sickness that is pervading our nation to the point that people wish death on the President. I can tell you that I despised Obama's policies but I never would wish death upon him. It's rather evil to wish death upon a political opponent.
Whatever the case, I have that nasty run behind me, I'm certainly hoping for at least overnight detention pay in Brownsville. I should be the second load going down there, so perhaps there is a chance. I have the 9:00 am load, someone else has the first load that is - loading right now actually.
Anyways, I have to get going, just watching the news about how this Trump getting the virus news is evolving.
Y'all have a good day. If your heart if full of hate, regardless of why, inspect your inner man/woman and perhaps do something to change that. His name is Jesus Christ, to put a "cure" to it.
