Goodbye 'swift'
 
Hubby gave them his notice today(IF they get him home on time, he starts new job in 2 weeks). He'll be driving for a co. in the Twin Cities, but it won't be OTR ( I think he's bummed about that coz he really likes OTR).He'll be Home every night, More $ and I'm sure they'll treat him better than Swift did.

Probably, a HUGE understatement. :lol: :P

Just curious can you say what company he joined in the cities?

I bet your excited to have him home, all kidding aside. Right??? I have been filling out apps online with dozens of companies just to get mine home. I am really happy for you. One place seems really interested (we will see).

shyykatt 11-02-2007 03:12 PM

Yeah, that'll be nice to see him more than once every 35-42 days. The bad part will be his new commute; we only have 2 gas guzzlin' pick-ups @ the moment, just in time for the new gas prices :?

Change in plans........ hes going w/a different co. instead; OTR, but home every weekend :D

That might work out for the best, since he wants to be OTR. Some truckers don't do well driving local. I have heard some that do get home every night basically get back just in time to grab something to eat, and then crash and burn before they have to start everything all over again.

This way it sounds he will hopefully get a solid two if not three days in for the weekend, and time to enjoy his family.

Wishing you all the best.

Hope it works out for you! Now I'm curious what company :lol:

Hope it goes well for you :) Right now I'm just hoping mine gets a couple days off for Thanksgiving, maybe even 4. Ok..so I know I'm dreaming..but occasionally they come true!
