Compensations


Second week on the new job. I would rather be sitting home drinking coffee but my compensation is seeing sunrises on the high plains.

What I do is transport drivers from the base 1 1/2 hours to the trucks.
Day crew up, night crew back. In the afternoon, repeat. 138 mile round trip. Not hard work and 2-3 months will get my finances back in balance. I am not planning on doing this in winter!

I wonder if many people consider the enormous investment in people time and cubic money needed to put gasoline at the pump at their local Shop-N-Rob?

Thanks to President Trump, much more of that investment is staying within our shores.

LOL, I can believe that. I KNOW it would screw with mine...

Over the years, especially in the military, have we learned to sleep for an hour or two and keep going? I've been doing it for decades.
