Local guy :(

Well I decided on this local gig... I think. I went and took the wiz quiz on Tuesday and am now just waiting to hear back. The one thing that has worked out great being out of work is i have been going to the gym everyday. Definitely been seeing results so that is a good thing. I might even be in better shape now, then when i started trucking. I guess that is the thing I am looking forward to the most with this local gig is being able to go to the gym after work. Hopefully I'll hear back today or tomorrow. That's all i have for now.

The Wooze will return...

Well i apologize for the lack of Wooze news. I had a little incident in GA and as a result am not working with Con-way anymore. Needless to say it is a little disappointing, but anyone that knows trucking knows how this shit works. So after a few days partying in Atlanta with a friend I jumped on a plane and came home to Buffalo. Where i continued to sulk over the situation while I wait for my lawyer in Atlanta to take care of my ticket for me. Everything was taken care of and am now looking for work. I am torn between having a home life and missing the road. I have a decision to make now. Take a local job running propane around the Buffalo NY area, or hit the road once again. Originally i thought I was ready to give up the road for awhile, But when a company called me and wants me to run for them, i did get excited about the idea. But i guess I can always run over-the-road and I guess it wouldn't hurt to have a little local experience on the resume. Plus when you add in the whole family and girlfriend situation it further complicates things. But on the other hand the money is better running over the road. So I went from having little options to 2 good ones. I think I am leaning toward to local deal. I know it is sad for an OTR to go local. I am pretty sure an angel losses it wings every time a OTR turns day runner...LOL So I think it is going to be the local gig for me. At least until winter. But just saying that makes me sentimental for the big roads... I don't know
