Transpo sings a new tune . . .
It stuns us as much as it must stun our loyal blog readers. . . The brotherhood of the wrench has gone rogue. Perhaps the unpredictable weather is contributing to their unpredictable behavior. Nevertheless, in a unanimous decision, they decided to re-name their entire fleet of vehicles.
"No longer will our fleet have names like like G-47X. We will name them as they should be," declared Steve at the recent manager's meeting.
"Cupcake, Periwinkle, Muffin, and Barney are the first names we came up with," asserts Tom. "Soon, we will name all of our fleet of over 20 vehicles" pipes in Mark.
"I never thought I'd see this day come to fruition" sighs Rob, "but I'm as happy as a clam that we've finally taken this bold move forward. I truly believe this is a step in the right direction for student and staff happiness".
Steve's smile couldn't be wider these days and we now understand why.
Below is a temporary sign for Cupcake, formerly named G-52X. The brotherhood is in the process of designing and eventually installing the new signs. Keep an eye out! In the meantime, leave your vehicle name suggestions in the comment area.

What ever happened to this...
Q: Do you have any nicknames for the fleet vehicles?
A: No names. Just numbers. All business.
Transpo, you've changed!

I'm happy to see this, I was forced by Chuck Smith to come up with a number system "to keep the Auditors happy".
Now they can name them in honor of drivers past. John, Juan, Dudley...
