I am employed by Gordon Trucking, and I work only in California. I almost left them for a local job after 6 months because my family situation requires that Im home every night. They said they wanted to keep me because deliveries are never late and I dont lolligag between loads, so now they even get me home every night.

California has 55MPH speed limits for big trucks, and that in itself will slow you down, not to mention Ca. traffic!! Since you get home every night, you probably don't get as many miles as you would OTR.
I admire you for having your priorities straight, and I'm glad that Gordon has the insight to see the value of keeping a good, safe, reliable driver. In any event, Congratulations once again, and keep up the good work!! |
