    So if I told you to jump off a bridge would you do it? If someone tells me to go to any company I'm doing as much research as I can. Research is easy and free. If a driver doesn't have the drive to research all their options then they get what they get and they shouldn't get any sympathy. Companies like swift, cr England, knight and all the other bottom feeders prove how lazy most drivers are. If people stopped being lazy most of these no good companies would not be in business.

    hey, Miss PattyJ, thanks for the welcome back! I'm back to this great site with no long intermissions. Hope you're doing very well!

    Re: OSHA. They're conducting the investigation on behalf of DOT.

    And regarding the homework comment, I have been diligently researching companies, spending countless hours doing so. That's how I found thetruckersreport.com, which provides valuable info on good and bad companies, esp to those of us new to the industry. With no experience, the list of companies who will hire recent grads is relatively short. There's only so much you can read about on any prospective employer, but until you actually attend orientation and drive for them, it's impossible to know if you're with thee organization that works for you. Arnold is a great company, Navajo looked good especially because they're one of the few companies incorporated in Denver. Looking good on paper is one thing...

    are ya picking up what I'm laying down?

    When I sued a trucking company,OSHA got involved.I had a good 2 hr meeting with them over the phone.They determine if your case is strong enough to pursue it.

    I agree,these recruiters knows what happens with companies and why the high turnover rate but they wouldn't be good recruiters far at the company is concerned if they actually told the truth.I hope it works out at Henderson.

    Glad to hear that PJ's back trucking.

    Hang in there, PJ.

    I'd pay for a daily report from your trainer, though. PJ says he's not exactly 'laid back', just 'doesn't care'. Almost a perfect fit. Trainer doesn't care who decides. PJ cares.

    We haven't met, a few texts, some emails, a phone call or two. Trust me here. One thing. PJ cares who's leader and who's follower. PJ leads, you follow. Or, you fight and argue.

    Had breakfast this morning at Golden Corral.

    Here's how PJ's Trainer gets there with PJ:

    Trainer: I don't think I want to go out for breakfast. Skip it, please.

    PJ: Oh, sure you do!! Where should we go?

    Trainer: How about that little Mexican place? Don't want to go to Golden Corral, too big, too many people. I eat too much.

    PJ: Oh, sure you do!! Golden Corral it is then.

    Trainer: Silent shrug.
    [To himself, "Okay, fine," because if he says it out loud PJ'll change her mind only 'cause he agreed... ]
