A landline Arkwood Man
A landline Arkwood Man is a man who drives so much, he’s practically a ghost. He doesn’t sleep, he doesn’t eat, and he doesn’t stop until the job is done. He’s usually found behind the wheel of a Kenworth, like it’s his new best friend.
He once drove through a hurricane just to get to work. I asked him why. He said, 'Because that’s what a landline Arkwood Man does.'
He told me he once drove for 72 hours straight. I said, 'That’s not human.' He said, 'That’s a landline Arkwood Man.'
He once delivered a shipment at 2 a. m. and then went to work. I asked him how he stayed awake. He said, 'Coffee, pain, and the promise of a paycheck.'
