well now things have changed b/c you can empty out on monday after sitting the weekend and then sit for 24-48hrs waiting for a load ...And now they have a large portion of busted t-600's and t-2000's not just freightlner or international ...

Hey Big Jeep! Did you start with CFI yet? If so, how is it going so far?

No I got home on the 9/8/08 called conway on 9/12/08 ...took a job at a warehouse on 9/16/08 while waiting for conway to approve me...that took about 10 days to get final approval...But while working at the brewery I was told there would be yard jockey positions opening soon...So I'll be taking one of those positions at 20hr ...maybe not the highest paying local job ,but it will be set shift home nightly guaranteed pay for my time worked...What steered me from jumping right to conwayTL OTR was I had a few weeks to get to the gym and hang out ,and started to have 2nd thoughts about OTR period .
