He was insignificant in every way and consequently I didn't pay much attention to him. But when he passed out in my bathtub, then I noticed him. I'd been in another room, talking to the bright people. I had to have him taken away." -on meeting George W Bush at Thompson's Super Bowl party in Houston in 1974

    A good attitude in trucking is the ability to sit for 48 hours unpaid, go to company meetings unpaid, sit at dock for hours loading or unloading unpaid, broke down on the side of the road unpaid and on and on.
    CPM is a pay scam that most trucking company's use to get around paying overtime for excessive hours of work and other monitory issues.Get paid hourly and prevent sweat shop conditions.

    which dedicated run did you get with JB?

    Oh wait...I just saw that you are home every other weekend for 3 days, Im guessing that is PPG...not a bad run, it will keep you moving.

    The terminal in Chicago is not bad.....I think they still have the Cafe their instead of just vending machines.

    Good luck, and keep us informed. :wink:

    Yeah its PPG. When I did a lease there I talked to a lot of the drivers that were on ppg and they seemed happy, some more than others. Ill be sure to write back in or start a thread on it. I imagine ill have to let the wife do the talking for me though as I wont have the laptop with me at least at first. Thanks for the luck im sure ill need it. The last time I was at the chicago terminal it seemed nice and they still had the caffeteria. the only thing I didnt like about it was all the intermodal drivers pms'ing. oh well I uess you can have that anywhere. Have a nice week all!
