Orangetx of course I have to tout the awesomeness of my employer, I have done this with my previous employers as well it is just part of being a loyal employee. Aside from this, is the fact that Mansfield is a fairly heavy hitter in the fuel supply field just a quick view of their history and a visit to the website will show that. The Bp's have only been on board for the last year or two in Atlanta and only for 6 months in Orlando, so if you compare that time frame to the 53 years Mansfield has been in business it seems unfair to label them as a BP Jobber, this is just one small aspect of the company. I made the jump from Florida Rock back in March after the FRTL District manager made it clear that if we were unable to hang on to the BP's once change over in ownership came there would be for certain layoffs, While he stated they would not layoff according to senority he did state it was a roll of the dice and he understood if drivers needed to make an employment change. Once i found out FRTL was not going to pull the BP's anymore and I found out that Mansfield was going to pull the BP's plus the fact that FRTL was a major carrier for Mansfield i.e 90% of their commercial work was Mansfield. The choice for me was an easy one "Jump ship quickly" So I applied with and sold my abilities to Mansfield and so far life is great..
Hobo & Freebird thanks for your vote to come back with my old name and avatar I appreiciate your words and I really am sorry for my behavior what can I say, the first part of the year was rough and I used the board as a means to escape from my daily issues in a manner that was not so becoming of my true functionaly dysfuntional way.. Gman if you like I can use some creative air brushing skills to hide the special surprise that got me in trouble.
If you like my new avatar will only show her/his large busty breast behind a slinky silky bra (no nipples)
and of course his/her man panties in an extra large size that will be hiding the surprise:eek2:.... or I guess I could go surfing again and find an old photo of a wolf. Then again you have yet to allow me back on under Timberwolf and I may just be stuck with this name or worse:cry:. Hopefully you all will find it in your heart to try to forgive me and realize I am truly sorry for my bad behavior and allow me to once again join in the CAD addictive fun (as Hobo Puts it):moon: Your call I will abide by your decision respectfully.:deal:
