Also too, check the label of those little spice jars before adding to pudding, lol. My sister told me to get some turmeric, which has some healthful properties, so of course I did, and as I was shaking a LOT of [what I thought was] nutmeg into the bowl, it occurred to me that maybe some...

Thanks to canned pumpkin and different puddings, I eat it all year around. The waffle cone bowls make it even better - esp if you hate washing dishes, lol. ;)

The perfect pumpkin spice expediter's dessert": pumpkin spice pudding [add plain canned pumpkin, if too sweet] in a waffle cone bowl. When they stop selling the pudding, try French vanilla or cheesecake pudding instead. EZ, fast, and delicious. Waffle cone bowls make oatmeal & cold cereal...

Better hope IRT doesn't weigh in [sorry/not sorry! bad!!] :bag:

Welcome to EO! I knew from the photo that you're not our Bruno, but it is kind of confusing, what with the same name, and signing on with Mayfield Express, lol. I do look forward to seeing you somewhere out there - love music, in all kinds of styles.

I forgot to mention that I was offered a load as soon as I finished delivery [Las Vegas to Tucson], but I couldn't accept because my flimsy license plate did a frisbee routine, and I had to wait for documentation before moving again. A load to Las Vegas would be sweet, I've been a few times, but...

Great! Delivered to the Proving Grounds in Yucca, Az, which was cool - but they made me sign a nondisclosure agreement, so I can't say anything else. They were extremely nice, though, and efficient, so it was a good delivery. Still waiting for a load, but I expected that going in, so no big...

So, they called about another load: 2000 miles, hazmat, pays $3000. I may regret accepting it, but I'd also regret declining, if nothing much else bubbled up. Found a nice long audiobook, and I'm on my way - cheers! :joyful:

I have everything including the kitchen sink - trucks are much like RVs these days. At least ours are, because we stay out for so long, and I need to cook for myself, I dislike fast food. I don't have a toilet/shower, as some do, and don't want it - too much weight. I have a good [Thetford]...

You want scary? I'm so bored right now, I'd embroider it, lol. I hate holiday weekends! Truth: I'm procrastinating. I moved into this truck almost 2 weeks ago, and I still haven't finished putting stuff 'away' yet. [Moving it onto the bed when driving, and the drivers seat the rest of the time...

Lots of drivers [and fleet owners and recruiters] can tell you what you could make, but it's variable. As in: wildly. First, because it depends on so many factors, beginning with your cost per mile, then how many miles you get paid for, [and how many you don't], plus maintenance, repairs...

All good advice. And you sound ready, much as anyone can be, but here's the thing: it's not just a change from the 8-5 routine, it's a huge change from every routine. You can call recruiters for the carriers advertising here, and they can tell you whether they have fleet owners looking for...

It shouldn't be hard to see inside an expedite truck, dealers love showing them to potential buyers, lol. Ok, not mentioning that you don't plan to buy a truck for a long time, if ever, is a bit shady, but it's for a good cause, I think. I like to check out newer RVs, looking for ideas I might...

What happens if you hire your nephew and it doesn't work out? Say, the van needs a major repair, which you should pay for, but you believe it's due to his negligence? Or he decides he doesn't like living in a tin can? I don't think you have any idea how many things can go wrong with hiring a...

Welcome! I can't offer any advice that you're looking for, [I'm not with FedEx, or a team], but I can offer some that you weren't: duplicate posts in different forums is not a good idea. Responses get divided between them, and any conversation that ensues is likely to be, um, schizophrenic, kind...

*waves* Hello yourself - always nice to lure the lurkers in, lol. Welcome!

True dat, but the "new guy" you're referring to isn't. The username is new, the job title is new, but the person behind it has been on EO [off & on] for years, so not a newbie at all.

Re: Forget I bothered You know what made me laugh? The part where the server spilled French onion soup down the customer's back [cheese and all!], customer complained to manager, and was given a banana. A banana? That's freakin hilarious, that is. ;)

Re: Forget I bothered We wish you luck. I've been a server, from restaurants to cocktails to banquets/catering, so I can absolutely understand your frustration. It's how I feel about 4 wheelers who don't think when they cut in front of me & hit the brakes, or just keep trying to squeeeeze past...
