Well its looking grim again
 . The guy I was supposed to go with decided he wasn't going to get a new truck, so now I am stuck searching again, and to make matters worse I have until tomorrow to find something!!! I am still sitting in the truck I have been in, but this guy is getting it switched over to the new company tomorrow and has a driver coming in tomorrow. This bites, I have been sitting here now for a few days with absolutely no money, ran out of food, ran out of cigarettes. BAH!!!! Now I am bummed again. Anyone need a driver ASAP? :PNot to mention I am sitting in Reidsville, NC, close to Eden, there is NOTHING out here, not even a truck stop to try to sell something at for quick cash. Man.... you ain't that far from me! I wish I could get up with you. I'd loan you some cash for beer and cigs! I wish I could help. There are lots of trucking companies near Winston-Salem and Greensboro! There's a decent truckstop at exit #170 on I-40 called Horn's. If you could get there, and post here that you are, I'd make the trip over there ANY night during my few hours of "hometime" to bring you some cash! I'd post my cell number, but.... every lady on CAD would be calling me! LOL!

I will be going with this guy in GA. It has been such a flip flop. At first he was going to get a new truck, but didn't want to pay the down payment, then he calls me up saying he is getting a new truck he found somewhere else. Then he calls me up today and says one of his drivers just found out they have a suspended license for not paying a ticket, so he has a truck open
. So it looks like I will be doing that.Seriously, good news!!! If you ain't moved by the weekend, the offer still holds. But, I don't have a laptop, so next time I check in will be tomorrow night. Soon as I clear my PM's, I'll give you my number. Seems like you get through here alot, and I wouldn't mind getting up with ya! BTW.... there's a thread on here somewhere with my email addy in it. You could send me YOURS, if you're up to it. Ya gotta LOVE this OTR chit, eh?

We can DO this! Are you in your truck... or a motel? I don't have much room here, but we'll work something out. Reidsville is about an hour from my terminal. I will probably only have 5 or 6 hours total tomorrow night... 2 of which would be driving. My car's acting up, but I could make it. Are you really tapped out?
