[QUOTE="outta hours, post: 165698, member: 4568"] I have pulled a set in a snowstorm and in ice. And a few times a train (triples) And down a mtn. in a 2 line fog. I have also been put in a hotel after 15 hrs in a tractor 1/2 way back to my hub, only to have someone bring me the next nights set down to me to take back to where I just came from. Without being back to my hub or home for two days. I am not short changing anyones contribution to this company. But we all know the weather makes for exceptions, emergency conditions whatever you want to call them. Where I am some days I have gone in and my run is canceled due to weather where I am headed. So if it is that dangerous my stance is I will call in an option 3 and stay home. Just because I continue to do my job( the one you used to do) does not mean you are any better than me. I choose not to do what you do now. I love guy's like you that have to brag on themselves for how great they were when they drove,loaded,or whatever. My expierence has been that those who have to talk up their own game, usually did not have much game to start with. Maybe you are an exception to that but I'm not sure about that yet. [/QUOTE]
