    780 miles driven today in the rental car, from Grand Junction CO to Omaha NE. Cruised at 82 the whole way except for Vail Pass and the Eisenhower Tunnel, snow and chains for cmv. My god it felt good to pass all those trucks on I80 for a change, even if it was in a four wheeler!

    Been off work for nine weeks. Wanted to bring all my stuff and get right to work, instead of going right back home again. Plan on staying out 6-8 weeks.

    Congrats brother! Give me a call sometime, probably will meet up out here in southern cali at some point. They throw a lot of info at ya there in orientation but all in all it's not to difficult being your already familiar with SNI ways. For me it was just matter of changing my mind set from company to owner op driver that was the most concerning. Enjoy and then get to work for god sake! : )
     
    sadwar Thanks this.

    Made it to Green Bay. Drove by Schneider but couldn't find my truck either outside or in the showroom. Did see on the notice board there are 11 of us here this week for Schneider Finance. Checked in and moved all my stuff into the room. Turned the car in and now just relaxing at the hotel. Cold, 19 with a wind chill of 5. Tomorrow's forecast says 4-6 inches of snow. Oh joy! If anyone else on the board is here pm me if you want to meet.

    Stay frosty.....

    Can you check if any kind of med/dental/health insurance if any is offered for I/C's with a family? That is why i have to stay company and can't jump to the dark side
