Plan or pipe dream?
 
I am going to school to get a cdl so I have been browseing truck companys looking for who might hire me and who I might like to drive for. I noticed under job opp. on schneiders website it list dedicated runs out of Georgia Pacific in Muskogee Oklahoma. That is where I am working till Oct. 6. I know they haul our wastepaper in and finished product out. There are 1 to 2 hundred trucks in and out of there a day and schneider probaly has a least 25% of those based on what I see in the yard and unload when I do overtime in that area. I know our shipping zone is mostly a 2 to 4 day turnaround away.
So, the plan part is if I can get hired and assigned there I could at least have my wife meet me for lunch/dinner a couple times a week and if timed right maybe have my ten hour break parked there and sleep in my own bed which would be a lot better than 10 to 14 days out.

Plan or pipe dream?

But...I'd rather trade that advice for a fishin' tip. :D

Roadhog, don't know where Mackinac bridge is but bass are headed to back of creeks to fatten up on shad, crappie are schooling up in deeper water around creeks for the shad in the south.

Sounds like a good plan.

--------------

This officer from the department of Fisheries suspects that his neighbor is using dynamite to fish.

He casually asks him if he can go out with him in the boat and his neighbor says sure.

Out they go, and when they get to the middle of the lake, the neighbor takes out a stick of dynamite, lights it and tosses it to the Officer.

The officer yells "WHAT THE HELL ARE DOING??".

The neighbor says, "Did you come here to talk, or fish?

usually you have to pay your dues before you can get on a dedicated route... I've picked up a load from there that went all the way back to the Walmart in hermiston OR even though there are 3 other big GP's up there...
