    So after trying out a couple companies I finally found a company i'm happy with. The pay isn't the highest in the industry but so far they've kept me moving and I don't have to deal with alot of bs. I don't know how it is to be dispatched out of other OC's but so far the Portland OC has impressed me. The mechanics down in Portland are also top of the line. So far so good with SNI. I'll try and keep this updated as things move along.

    So i'm home for the weekend, but I head out tomorrow. My dispatcher sent me a load that would've taken me to Cali for the weekend but this weekend I couldn't do it, so I asked if he minded if I turned down the load. He had me come down to the oc to talk to him and when I told him what was up he switched me off the load and sent me home bobtail. He was cool about it and said he apperciated my honesty. I've never had a dispatcher not get pissed off at me because I turned down a load and then pay me to bobtail home 150 miles away. Just another reason I'm happy at Schneider.

    Yeah I was just through that dollar tree in Ridgefield last friday. The Portland OC is nice, and they have kept to their word.

    Oh yeah,what time?
    I pulled in about 15:30 if memory serves,if you saw a big blue Harley Davidson parked just past the guard shack with the drivers cars and bobtail trucks that was mine,I usually head home on friday afternoons.

    I think you literally got there as I was pulling out. I got there about 1500 and then bobtailed out. I guess the trailer I took there got a flat at some point on the passenger side rear axle. I seen your bike sitting there.
