I'm not saying Swift is bad by any means rather the town and the area the terminal is in to be precise. Downtown Memphis is nice and the Mississippi river is a site to behold along the banks out there. Just giving you a heads up on what you will be living around for a while 10-4?

I reckon much of the "problems" were created by them socialists ya reckon? the point is they don't want to solve anything, just create more problems for the regular folk.

Hey everyone! Just a note to thank ALL of you for all the questions and answers... this has truly helped the MOM of trucker's with the last one leaving the nest to head in to this industry!
Macho, thank YOU for asking questions! And we just want to wish you the BEST of luck on your journey to TN ... I'm bettin you leave tomorrow. PLEASE take that lap top with you. There have been some old posts that gave blow by blow reports here, so I ASSUME that if they didn't have wireless, they had the phone connection, so take a wire with ya! We are going to be waiting here to see what you have to say! I can see that with your attitude, and questions, you are going to make a GREAT driver! We'll be praying for you to make an easy transition in to the big world of truckin!
I'm still hoping that we can find SOMEONE that will be in the Mar. 9th class in TN to chat with SOON!
Does ANYONE know if it's against rules to give out your personal email addy on here? I'd really like to stay in touch with Macho to see how he does out there!
Hope all of ya have a GREAT weekend!
Sheila
