Hey, Bean

Bean, I don't drive right now. I drove over the course of 8 years from mid-95 until early '03. I got out because of all the BS in trucking. When I got out, I dumped my CDL. I just got tired of it, man. All the DOT hassels, DAC, long-********* tours, incompetent dispatchers and bosses, blah, blah, blah.

I'm overseas right now, but I'll be returning to the USA soon and will look into getting back into trucking after I get back to Salt Lake City, Utah. I'm in no hurry to get back in. If I do make the leap, I'll take my time at each step to make sure I get back in on the cheap AND end up at a GOOD outfit to boot. That'd sure be nice.

Yeah I drive a Swift truck
And that means one thing
It means she's slow
It's a typical company truck
It's just all show and no go

I'm gettin' passed by Yella
And even Overnite
I'm gettin' passed by ever' body in sight
46 days on the road
And I'm not gettin' home tonight

No, my hometown's nowhere in sight
And if you think I'm pissed off
You're right
46 days on the road
And I'm not gettin' home tonight


Love pissing off those trucking company insiders.

Re: How About Crete?

Tip, thanks very much. I believe I am leaning towards CCC if I can get a few questions answered at my school and at the CCC Corp Office.

Re: I guess I need to make a move soon

Tip,

I look forward to hearing about your experiences getting back into the industry. I have appreciated your honesty and willingess to help us newbies out here and hope one day I will be able to give you a little help or encouragment as well.
Best of luck and remember -- if they advertise in the papers everyday you don't want to work for them

I wonder if CCC still has its newbie training in Lincoln? I may have to actually go back to a school. Insurance companies, insurance companies, insurance companies.
Sorry Tip but i just took that spot youll just have to go else where
