    Blue Beacon mobile service? Kind of feels like it. Getting hammered right now in Florida. Got me thinking... About a month ago I got my van washed at Blue Beacon. I asked if they had any wax that could be applied. All they had is Rain-X that is suppose to help keep it cleaner longer...

    Since I had to scratch my head over that statement for minute, I couldn't resist, but I know what you meant ;) Freedom lost? Inconveniences? IDK, depends how you look at it. Living as a glorified homeless person in a van doesn't scream freedom to me :rolleyes: This month being my worst ever...

    IDK, most of the ones I stop at are pretty nice. Come across the occasional iffy one now and then, but mostly pretty pleased with them. Or I have the bar set so low that I'm happy when there is toilet paper :D

    I had to hold back laughing at a shipping manager. There was a delay at the shipper. He was a really nice guy. He suggested that if I haven't had lunch yet, I could get something to eat. I told him, I would step outside to my van for a few. He got this shocked look on his face saying, "oh, you...

    Headed for a pickup in Panama City Florida 130 miles away. Got to see more of the Hurricane results and clean up. I was pretty shocked to find out all of this was caused back in October [emoji15] I would have guessed much sooner, based on the clean up progress. One of the most unbelievable...

    That's a option still on the table ;) I may (again) consider driving for a owner 1st, before buying one, to gather real world numbers to better justify the cost/risk of ownership. I can only take hypothetical numbers so far, and so far, it's not a slam dunk :rolleyes:

    Odd. Another day, another helicopter comes through at the same J. Is this a Florida thing? [emoji57] Sent from my iPhone using EO Forums

    Can't say I've seen this before at the J. One of those hotshot pickup truck company's pulling a long flatbed trailer comes driving through the parking lot. That part not to uncommon to see, what was interesting was the cargo. A rather large helicopter :eek: Wish I could of got a good pic, it...

    My QC startled me o_O I've had the new QC unit for a while now. Disclaimer: I never read the instructions :rolleyes: A few weeks ago watching a YouTube video, someone was showing the same unit and that it had a voice command feature. I thought that was pretty interesting, but mine never did...

    I've been cutting my own hair for years, it's really not that difficult, and becomes easier with time. Have only had one real goof when using my electric trimmer with the wrong size attachment by mistake, resulting in a much shorter hair cut then I planned on :rolleyes: But it was the middle of...

    I prefer to self check out and bag the way I want it. Besides being faster, I've found I'm much more likely to catch any price errors. Besides, I actually enjoy doing it :rolleyes:

    Spent the night at the Walmart I delivered at. We don't normally get to see what becomes of what we deliver, let alone use it. I found it rather amusing that I got to use one of the new self checkout machines I delivered :D Driving across Florida on 10, I got to see some of the damage and clean...

    Got my 1st awarded load via robocall Thursday. Considering I was like 5th or 6th, I was rather surprised when the phone rang a few minutes later confirming the load. I guess no one else wanted it? The way my month has been going, I sure wasn't about to turn it down ;) In this case, I can...

    Empty in Atlanta after my 4th load of the month. Technically 3rd, since I picked up the 1st load on New Year's Eve :rolleyes: Very far cry from the great start last January. Having some repairs and PM work done this month hasn't helped the numbers look very good. On the bright side, as of this...
