Thursday, January 07, 2010 On The Road With Mark 'Odd Job' Jaffe: Dec 22-23, 2009 "Truck-worthy Friend Trio"It's been a few weeks coming but I've finally finished going through the photos I took on my journey before Christmas accompanying Mark Jaffe on a two-day excursion of truck driving and food delivery (documented live here). ![]() "Mark Jaffe, Roadmaster, And His Chariot" It was a fascinating, exhausting trip, which I will share in greater detail soon, but for the time being here's a photo slideshow I've put together. You can view it below or in larger, fullscreen glory here (recommended). Alternatively, if you don't like slideshows you can view the whole group of 55 photos here.

It's 12 degrees outside and we have spent the past 5 hours at the unheated Basis Farm To Chef warehouse in New Paltz unloading and then reloading our truck for tomorrow's deliveries. I woke up at 6:30 and have been on the road since 7:15 so it's been a pretty long day, interrupted only by an hourlong nap I took in our truck from 9:30-10:30 while we waited for the last of the trucks to arrive (Mark continued working). A 1:30 am bedtime wouldn't be bad if it weren't followed by a 3:40 am Labels: mark jaffe, quicksnaps, Truckbloggin posted by Nihilist Loves Hate, Hates Everything at 12/23/2009 02:02:00 AM 0 comments TRUCKBLOGGIN' #10: Greenage As a natural extension of the gentle amusingness of this very long day, I just spent 15 minutes standing in a circle of a group of eight male laborers chomping on various leafy foods to determine which unlabeled box contained the plant "mustard greens"--with none of us being able to identify a mustard green by sight or even, frankly, by taste. Ultimately we decided after pulling up a photo of mustard green on the Problem solved, though I am still wondering, after seeing the words Labels: food, mark jaffe, quicksnaps, Truckbloggin posted by Nihilist Loves Hate, Hates Everything at 12/23/2009 01:50:00 AM 1 comments 1
