And all hell broke loose. At least for the first four hours anyway. I only made it OGG once, from central Kihei. After 11p, it slowed down to a regular Friday night. Most of the tourists that did go out, didn't last much past 11p. Adjusting to the time difference.
Our operation did get some sore muscles last night, from lack of use. The new guys didn't know that it would be that busy (They Ain't Seen Nuthin' Yet). The after 9p driver/dispatcher has developed some lazy habits and they bit him in the ass. He used to be able to talk on the phone and monitor the radio, like I do, but he's lost that talent. I sure hope he finds it again.
