I had to get up one day a week at 2:30 AM every other week for a year to do a 5 hour drive and then work a normal 8 hour shift

Are you posting using a laptop while sitting on the can? Cause that's about the ONLY way you could be doing this if you had food poisoning!

Sorry about the food poisoning!

I get up at 4am every day to get to work so I have no sympathy for your getting up 'early'

Hope you’re feeling better.

&BTW - “Early” is when you beat the sun by at least a couple of hours.

6:30 isn't early, its only early when its still dark out.

This time of year I wake up early on purpose, I rather get on the job by 7 and get out early, so I can work while its still fairly cool. It gets hot in the afternoon!

Roger that.

Airborne in about 30 min.
Quick hop to DAL to pick up right seater.

Will shoot NNE (climbing like a bat out of hell), then cut back NW and make a run up the Red River. By then will be around fl260+ and maybe have a nice dance through that cut.

Cheers

- Shelby

Howdy All,
Start work at 5am on regular work days. When I go in on non-regular work days I start at 4am.

I'm not a morning person. I should really be working third shift. My sympathies to the OP. I've had food poisoning really bad. Little in life sucks more.
