McTurbo, glad you got part of your JB issue worked out, hope Roehl didn't ding your DAC to badly with the fifth wheel issue.
TomB, I remember many a cold night wrestling with a froze up fifth wheel. Last *&^%$ one was on a cold (close to -40) night picking up a load at the P & G lot in Green Bay, ticked off that those darn jaws wouldn't lock, worked that thing for close to 30 min. before she finally locked, but what really ticked me off was two fold. It was the night playoff game tween the Pack and the Giants, the Pack lost and I got stuck in all that traffic as the game let out.
Jonp, sorry to hear that things went down that way for you Groveton drivers, I used to think you guys had it made up there in NH. Loved those runs in and out of ME and the peace and quiet at the little Mainway T/S in Gorham.
When I left Roehl last year, I to worried that they might ding my DAC for not giving them enough notice when I left for the a local foodservice position here in the Twin Cities. Gave em only a few days notice, picked up my last load, relayed it to Marshfield, turned in the truck, and they politely asked if it was possible for me to do one more run to VA and back before leaving, told em sorry.
When I did my orientation at USF, my DAC was fine and Roehl gave them a fine recommendation.
