Ace and I have our 10th wedding anniversary coming up. We're taking a week off. My only demand has been that we be off the truck by roughly 10pm the night before. (All right, I've also asked for cheesecake, but that is a request, not a demand.)
Ace has never had quite that much time off. At least not since his first break during training.
While we are off, we're going to talk do a different company. We've had a few too many problems lately with the current one. We sat from 7 pm Friday until 1 am Tuesday on Memorial Day weekend. We got paid $270 in compensation for that. None of that actually saw our checking account for various reasons.
We are not amused. And we are tired of Ace being called for favors and getting messed up financially for doing them, with no one willing to help us out in return.
It's coming up to being time for a change.
So, change we are looking for.
(I am still frustrated and tired and overwhelmed by some things. But I'm better, knowing we have a plan.)

I know that $270 might seem like a lot to get paid for sitting for 3 1/2 days, but since I have fixed expenses for the truck that account for $115 per day that means that I actually lost over $100 during that time.
