Con-Way Boot Camp Graduating Class of June 14, 2014

The graduating class of Con-way Boot Camp June 14, 2014. It was a long and somewhat stressful week, but we learned a lot and had a great time.

We are now on day three back at the famous Holiday Inn in Joplin, MO awaiting our trainers.

Not knowing when our trainers will be assigned to us, we went to Sam's Club this afternoon. It is within walking distance and we are trying to conserve our dollars. Eating out 2-3 times a day with no income coming in yet is cutting into our reserves. Naturally everything is in super-economy size packages. So we ended up with a "5 gallon" bag of corn chips (Mark's description), 2 quart sized bottles of Pace Picante sauce (they don't sell single containers), a 3 lb family size rotisserie chicken, a platter of pastries for breakfast and a gallon of milk. Next we make our way to the check-out when it suddenly dawns on me that Sam's Club doesn't use bags...and we're walking...yeah. So imagine the sight of Mark carrying an M&M's box filled with chips, salsa, chicken and breakfast breads up on his shoulder across the parking lot and down the road to the Holiday Inn. He let me carry the milk. If y'all need snacks, just knock on the door of room 179. We have enough here to feed an army!!
