Yes this is going to be a whining session, so please click out or be patient. My check tuesday of this week is going to be 30 bucks, that's all I worked last week, so it's all I get paid.
Then the waybills to turn on from last week are due today, but since I have been without a truck for five days now, the waybills are in the darn truck so next tuesday's check is going to be zip, zero, notta....
Then a new work week starts tomorrow and I still don't have a truck to work with. Then to top off everything, my husband and son go clean a bar before it opens every weekend morning. All they have to do is mop and clean the bathrooms. For this, which takes under an hour, they are paid 20 bucks. I think they have missed once in a six month time frame, well the bar owner told them that thier services was no longer needed. He was going to have one of his tenants clean the bar, so he doesn't have to wake up so early. Fine for him, but this is not a good thing for us. I depended on that money to put gas into his truck and then he used the rest of the money to purchase his weekly cigarettes. Now not having the money would be worth it's weight in gold if he would quit smoking due to lack of money, but oh no he's just going to take the money from somewhere else.
On a good note, I am on gather a whole lot more, more than the law allows I am sure, but at least in my time of being truckless I am being productive. I really should be doing housework, but when I look at the housework vs gather, gather wins everytime. Actually the dishes are done, clothes are washing and drying, the kids are doing thier chores, dh is in bed so I can't wash the sheets, see I am doing housework....hahahha!!
Thanks,
Stephanie

I do hope that things get better for you quickly. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Susan, hopefully a window is opened up for me soon, it can be a winning lottery, a better paying job, just something to let me know life is going to even out.
