    People that complain must not have good on time deliveries/driving records. If you are with a good company and get the job done on time it's a great job! That's why Kevin has that nice Kenworth. It makes the job much nicer if your oartner is with you 💕

    That air fryer is a good idea. I don't know if you know it, but you can cook hard. Boiled eggs in the air fryer 270°, 15 minutes and then cool them and chill water, and you can also do softboil eggs it's 270° at 8 minutes.

    I thought you two slept on the bottom bunk together so I recommended getting a Dometic CFX-95DZ and put it on the top bunk but it seems you both have your own bunk. Check its measurements and it might fit between the seats.

    I see so many obese truck drivers -- it is important in this job to eat carefully. Kevin looks to be in good shape, but I've noticed he has been putting on a little on the waist. My brother lost his CDL due to obesity. It is an inherently unhealthy occupation so extra care is mandatory. Glad to see you two are paying attention to this.
