7 Kids and Shugie !

I worked for the Durkins from around Oct 1969  until Sept 1977. I was just out of the Army and back from Vietnam and the Durkins gave me a job. I was a hand full back then and made more mistakes than the average guy. One story out of many is; I was on my way to work running late as I often did, when i got a speeding ticket for 74 in a 30.  It was on the radio and Drew heard it,  he say something like; " what a jackass that guy was."  I was at the window getting more delivery orders and said; " boy what a jerk the speeder was."  Well I should've kept my mouth shut.  Drew look over at me; and said it wasn't you was it   I said yes,  I didn't want to be late. Drew said if you ever got a ticket like that in one of my trucks; I would all done working for him. again my big mouth, I said, "it will never happen because your truck only will go about 68 mph.  At that point,  Jimmy handed me more delivery orders and said, " go, leave now!"  As I looked back I think I saw smoke coming out of Drew's ears. Good people to work . RIP Boss.

P.S.  I heard Drew say more than once I have 7 kids an Shugie!
