nope, i had 5 years flatbed and about 6 years pulling livestock,reefers and dry boxes so they cut me loose after 3 days, but this was one of the first companies i ever worked for that i have gotten along with everyone i met when i first arrived at the motel, its a very different atmosphere there

 

sometimes longhaul works out better since most of them have the enclosed racks and can put their stuff in that which means easier drop and hook. also since the new fontains dont have boxes most linehaul cant pull them.

 

Sorry I've been gone so long! I've missed SO much in all the TMC threads!!! I just got a new laptop so HOPEFULLY I'll be a more frequent contributer!!! I'll try to get on via wireless every chance I get for now until I'm in my own truck and get weekends off!

 

Golds how is the training going

 

This past week my trainer started your week in PA and ended back in NC but seen alot more excitement. I got ahold of the joker just to let him know who my trainer was. Met up with a couple of different trainer-trainee cobos, and got to see one of the guys that was in the orientation class just before me and then one that I went to school with and was in orientation the week after me.

 

Hey cable, Joker said he talked to you, we were running together to PA, NJ that night you called.

 

I guess before long I will be in the mix with ya'll

I am getting ready to head back to Fayetteville in a little bit so that I can make it to New Jersey tonight and on to the consignee by 8 AM

 

Yeh I leave in a little bit myself to head to Ill.

 

I'm curious, what is up with TMC in the state of VA?? For the past month, my wife has seen nothing but TMC trucks either wrecked or pulled over by the police between Dulles Airport and Opal, VA. Just saw one this evening half laid over in a median crossover at Opal. Saw 3 about a week ago pulled over with 5 police cruisers and 2 DOT's in their SUV's. I was under the impression TMC drivers would pretty good drivers.........must only be the one's on here that are good, tcurr, joker, cable and von se :wink:

 

EXCELLENT!!! Completed week two and I LOVE IT. So glad I made this decision! Thanks for asking! C U out there!
