    Default GOOD NEWS!

    GOOD NEWS! I think I have the job at Ee-Jay Motor Transport, Mike is gonna check on my past work experience which I'm worried about and then they are gonna call the references on my list. He told he'll call me tomorrow for the drug test or Monday. He told me I'll do alot of painting poles, landing gears and trailers. They said I can get the CDL permit and they will help me get my CDL. I met the owner and everyone there was GREAT! He is very very safety minded and he said they don't hire people who don't show up for work and just do nothing so that is why I'm worried about the job references! Hey I was a 15/16 at the time and immature then. Other than that I'm pretty excited!!!! They are gonna train me cause each shipper has certain procedures and standards when it comes to inspecing, sampling the produce, and etc. Also told me if I perform good during the summer they will let me work there for CO-OP during school.

    congrats LL,

    We were all young and dumb, shoot some of us are still dumb.

    They may cut you slack, You cant change what's in your past, Only your future. Tell them they won't regret hiring you, and make sure They don't.

    good luck double L

    be prepared for the questions about your job history, tell him the truth, don't sugar coat a thing, take responsibility for your actions and hopefully they will appreciate that in you.

    They interviewed me on the spot. I was there for about 3 hours cause they was busy they had to inspect rail cars and stuff. Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday they switch out rail cars. Like I said they are gonna train me and all that good stuff on the different shippers requirements. I think what I'm gonna do is keep a blog, it may be boring to alot of you but I'm sure some of you will be interested in how my day goes. Mike told me he wants me to show him my detailing skills and told me if I need anything such as cleaning supplies to let him know. I do know I'm gonna need window cleaner along with amour-all wipes. I rarely detailed the inside of a truck at Schiber but at Riechmann I had to use soap and water and I didn't like using soap and water, I rather use amour-all wipes. I'm gonna need to get some tire shine stuff and I'm debating if I want to get some Macguires and take a couple hours to polish the wheels and tanks on the trucks that I do wash.

    To make it more interesting, I got stopped today by some crack head, she asked if I could give her a ride to Lake St. I told her she was on Lake St. and then she is gonna tell me if I give her a ride she'll give me a blow job! I told no but hell no! :shock: I just shook my head after that one! Then when I was leaving another crack head tried to stop me and was chasing after my truck! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

    Congatulations!

    Good to hear. Now make them happy they hired you. You've got an inside track into the industry...treat it as a gold mine.

    Good luck. 8)

    Change of plans, I was gonna go in from 8 am to noon tomorrow but a driver failed a drug test and they had a meeting and the boss is pretty strict when it comes to safety. So I'll hear something Monday and I may start at noon on Monday or Tuesday at 8am. They work every other weekend and that I like!

    Don't forget to say "Yes sir" and "Thank you."

    This is a great break for you - and there will be bad days but remember your work history and have a commitment to make it better! Heaven knows mine looks like a checkerboard and look where I am now - a coolie! 8)

    Make lots of friends - even the people you don't like. :P
