    Also for anyone who may be wondering.. They have ALOT of new trucks that just arrived in up there and taking all the decals off the old ones selling them off...I'm very new to them so i dont know where the trucks go to (as far as other terminals are concerned) but i can tell you their mostly all white new cascadias with inverters and the heating cooling systems on them... They said i will have about a 3-4 week wait to get my permanant truck so for now its slip seat but they also told me that they have an abundance of older trucks to where my slip seat truck will probably not be driven by anyone else but me..not all bad i guess

    Those sound like Walmart trucks not SNI trucks. our trucks aren't equipped the heating cooling and inverter setup. All trucks have bunk heaters some have the batwing ac unit on the cab but those are rare

    Sooooo, came back from TAH to a message on my QC asking me to come inside and see my DBL before I took off.

    Went in, and we went into a "meeting room". I really didn't know what was going on. He then proceeded to ask me about an OOS violation I had.....IN FEBRUARY! REALLY? I was put oos by a local PA cop after he said I had an air line leaking after an inspection, which was odd, because he had me hold my brakes and had no loss of air pressure, put me OOS and made SEM send someone out to fix it. Repair guy showed up, put on a new hose, and wrote on the repair order that the old line WAS NOT LEAKING.

    So pretty much was just a "make sure you are doing pre-trips, blah blah blah" with a sheet showing my CSA violations. It was the only one listed. Kinda confusing since this was over 6 months ago, they have known about it since it happened, THEY paid the fine, and nothing else was ever said. DBL told me not to sweat it, it was required by the company he go over it with me and have me sign a committment to excellence or something like that. So I signed it, meh, whatever.

    Then he proceeded to give me a nice 2300 mile run to California.

    If you are wondering, 18 CSA points for that stupid violation.
