New to the Brown Cafe, "Hey"

:biting:Long time upser, about 21 years now. Currently in Feeder now, just over four years driving the big trucks. Im based here at Main St. in Los Angeles, California. Great job, better than package, alot better. But the hours suck, takes awhile to get used to. Almost every week the hours are diffrent, next week I have to go on a sleeper run. Well I guess thats enough for now, be safe out there....

Welcome ferndog, sounds like you've got an interesting life and you'll be able to add a good take to all the threads here. I'd like to hear about that sleeper run, for sure.

Welcome Matt! Steve in South Florida here. Originally from New Yawk City. I'm known as STUG on the BC and my info is at the begining of this thread. It'll be nice to have another Steward to bounce questions off of.

Word of mouth led me here.
Welcome Professor, hope you enjoy your stay on the island.:wink2:

Ok, I'll be the first:

Which one did you think was prettier, Mary Ann or Ginger?
I think Ginger was more "glamorous" but I preferred Mary Ann, though nowadays Mary Ann is kinda creepy.
