Dead Deer and Heartless Bastards

Yes, I'm home but I'll get into that in a bit. This week was and is really weird, as in a previous blog entry you all know about my mom and that will be later on in this post. First I was going to deliver in Norway Mi and on my way over buy Ashland WI on US-2 i was just driving along minding my own business and all of a sudden there was something in the road. To me it looked like a big box, so I moved over to the shoulder as I got closer (mine you it's dark outside) and then notice it was a deer that had just gotten hit by someone. As I'm driving down the shoulder of the highway my left tires clipped the feet of the dead deer and that was it...i thought! I continued on to Michigan rest area and went to bed. Got up about 5:30am the next morning and inspected my truck and trailer and didn't see anything wrong and drove on to a store two towns away to get coffee. There again as I'm going into the convenience store I'm looking at my truck and trailer as well on the way out of the store and didn't see anything wrong. So I drove on to Norway, Mi. to make my 7am delivery, which i didn't get there until about 8am (too fucking bad dispatchers) I'm always late the way there running me lately, but to get back to the story...once I got there i pulled up to the dock and there was another driver from my company in the dock so i backed up out of the way to wait. I got out to open my doors and check out the truck again (I'm alway looking at my truck when-ever I'm outside it) and as I walked to the passenger side of the truck I noticed deer fur all over the place. So I looked closer an low and behold there was the fucking deer under my truck! It was wedged between the springs and the brake canister! I'm like fuck-n-a! How the fuck did it get under and stay there for almost 200 miles? I told the other driver about it and he couldn't believe it either. We both tried for almost one hour and couldn't get the dam deer out from under there. I was frozen and stuck in such a bad location it wouldn't even move one inch. We tried hitting with hammers and using a 2 by 4 that I ended up braking also big steel bars to pry it loose and it wouldn't come out. I said fuck it it's staying there and my dispatchers then told me to pick up a load 99 miles away in DePere, WI and deliver it to Duluth, MN in the morning another 327 miles. So by the time I got to Duluth MN the deer was still stuck under my truck and they told me to goto Virginia, Mn. That's almost 700 miles with a fucking deer stuck under my truck!!! Finally I made it to the shop and the mechanics tried and tried cut and cut away the deer to no avail. Finally they took my tires off and released the spring tension and what was left of the carcass fell to the ground. That took 2 hours to do mine you!

So the heartless bastards that i work for let me come home right now but I have to call in a 4pm to see if I have to go back to work for a 6am delivery in St.Paul, MN. I asked if I could just stay home to go visit my mom in the hospital and that's what they did to me......FUCKING BASTARDS!!!! I don't get how a company or any company would have no heart when it comes to family matters. Maybe it's just where I work? I'm sure that if my dispatcher moms or dad's or fucking anyone in there fucking family was in the hospital they'd be gone until the issues was resolved or there family member died! Maybe I'll put a hex on them? Bastards!!!! The end......
