Nothing like finally finding a pay phone where you can park an eighteen
wheeler, calling the consignee, and getting directions from the front
office ditz, which you transcribe on your pad. Halfway there you realize
the route that works for her Pinto ain't working for you.

There were also the drivers too cheap to get the proper device and
cheaped out on the standard Garmin. I worked near a low bridge and
could point them out.
