I spent too much time runnin local/regional, after a week my one remaining loose screw falls out and I'm left with a nut.
A few weeks ago I liberated a handful of wire from coastal berry in watsonville, back in salinas waiting in the taylor farms holdin pen. I made me some alien antennas out of the wire and stuck jelly donuts on each side, then laughed at the tach till I got hungry. 7 days was all it took, when I made it back home my wife would not come and git me, then when I finally made it to the door step she wouldnt let me in till I was in a kinda right mind.

In household, its not uncommon to stay out in the summer months (busy season). I talked to one MARRIED Atlas driver o/o and he says he has done 5 months straight once. But then again, if your truck took in 300K in revenue per year you'd stay out too. Pretty much, my time is money, so the pay should grow exponentially as you are out on the road (kinda like mileage bonuses).

Well....another one bites the dust....
said he wanted to be home every three days and we told him in the world of OTR you can't be home every other day...so now I gotta go find another driver. When will the world stop and let me off?

After training, Im personally going either dedicated or Regional.
Some people WANT to go OTR, some people like me want to do regional or dedicated. Surprised you cant find anybody else like sanchez. :?
