There are good days driving truck. And there are bad days driving truck. So far, Jerry Drolshagen was having a bad day. The 57-year-old Wisconsin native blew a compressor while hauling 31 pallets of aluminum baking tins to central Alabama, which wouldn’t be nearly as much of a problem if it wasn’t the middle of August.
