Autumn Transport, Woodbury, MN ...pulling pneumatic tanker..

[millersod215]

I pulled pneumatics for a while, mostly just concrete and flyash, but i did work for a company hauling ground rubber in a big 4 barrell tank once owned by Con-Agra foods, sorry if my terminology regarding the tank is wrong, that's just how i referred to it. It took almost 2 hours to unload, our customer told us nothing over 9 PSI though, so that could have had something to do with it. What all do u haul in your tank, and how long is the average unload? Is it more food based products, or all types of commodities?

Spent the last 14 months starving at Mercer Transportation, quit today and am starting at Mawson & Mawson on Monday. We'll see how it goes.

Lordy lordy! Good to hear that you decided to listen to CFM and are finally going to 'walk away' from coolie carrier OTR truck driving!:lol: It has taken some time, but you are coming around Jed. CFM/LBJ/Coolio/Mike Hunt would be proud of you!

The pirate sings tonight..............:thumbsup:

(BTW Jed....PM me your cell phone#, I'm flying into Columbus next week and will be hoboing around between Parkersburg and Indy for a couple of weeks. I can make good on that beer and maybe talk some sense into you)

not once did i say i was unhappy. not once did i say i was thinking of leaving because i hate my job and am sick of coolie carrier truckin'. i am just to the point that i am sick of letting someone take their cut of the money before i get mine.

The reason, well, they hired me last year, and it's a job... I'm still making money, and that's about it. I've been on the hunt for something better, but until I find something better, I'll stay here.

I just talked with a Schneider Wal-Mart driver out of Henderson that did the Dollar General/South Boston account for 5 years before Werner took it over. He didnt want to work for Werner so left and came here.
