Leap of faith.

That is what is fixing to happen. I am fixin' to leap on that sorry dog truck driver that is causing me so much grief here at the jobsite and I know I will put a deluxe whipping on him.

The truck driver talked with the safety and insurance man and gave him a sob story of how he couldn't get unloaded at the warehouse and it was making him take longer to do his shift. Crazy thing is, a driver that was summoned in at the same time was HOME six hours before Cricket yesterday. They pick up and deliver at the same locations.

Go figure.

Once again we are behind.

And I am beginning to run out of patience. I can't get hold of who I need to, their phones go straight to voice mail. So yesterday I was talking with Tricky Rick the safety and insurance man and this morning I can't even get him. I did get a call from Mr. Saunders (whose role I really don't know), telling me that Cricket slept all night in a roadside park, and asking me how bad a shape I was in. He was supposed to call me back with a relief plan but I have not heard from him.

I think it may be a case of no one wants to be responsible or maybe even too many Chiefs and not enough Indians. Regardless, I am becoming frustrated with unanswered phone calls and indecision.

It is not like I can't call in help from other sources. Maybe I have too much family allegiance, but at some point that becomes secondary.

The 'Canes got beat in overtime. Kirb had a horrible game. 1 for about a dozen, one TD and three picks. Yikes. I still wonder about the coaches ability to put together a game plan for Kirb. I know at Oklahoma their package really sucked.

Krl paid the day rate so I could watch the game and I think they activated all the channels except that one. It made me furious.

Last night I got a call from my night forklift operator and he was having a problem with the new machine. This is the second of this make machine I have purchased, but this one has not been near the experience of the first one. It seems like all we have done is tighten bolts and chains and other attachments. I have a call in to the dealer right now. Sounds like a warranty claim to me.

Well, I had better get. I need to get this operation derailed from going straight to h-e- double hockey sticks today.

I'm going to look for some pajamas with a "S" on the chest.

Have a day.

FATHER, I don't even know where to begin.
