My best lady friend in this town thinks she is my guardian. Her mother is about the same age as I am, so she has this “take care of mother” thing with me. I finally got a familynet thingy and she can go there on her computer and see where my phone is if I have my phone on. When I leave the house I have the phone on. I don't care if she knows where I am.
I suppose if a truck driver was doing the right thing, he wouldn't care either, but I can see how some would think “big brother is watching me”.
It is nice to have people who care about us! Those things can be a blessing. My husband actually likes the electronic logs. No more dispatchers pushing him to cheat. No more dispatchers blaming him for screwing around if he’s 30 minutes late somewhere because of a traffic snarl.
My aunts had one so my grandmother could live in her own home in back of my aunt’s house before she died.
Have a great day!
