    Good day folks. I'm a 42 year old male with 20 years experience driving. I'm looking for a job where there's money to be made with no BS attached, and a boss that can appreciate the time that I'm willing to give. I have been one of these individuals over the years who has jumped ship more times then I can count due to company politics, lies, not getting paid for things that I've done for these companies in there vehicles. I'm not an owner operator so there for my time is money. Most importantly I'm looking to relocate from Ontario to preferably BC. I'm not interested in anything extreme just calm and some what relaxing at this point. I'm divorced and expect quality equipment and if possible a nice little room to call my home in a relaxing setting when the work is done at the end of the day or week, whatever the schedule may be. I don't mind living in the truck 70 to 80% of the tume, but desperately need peace and solitude on my down time. I'm a good worker reliable and sick of BIG society, small town living preferably. If your looking for me then let's talk my contact is 8077073549 and my name is Chris

    What does your abstract look like?

    Good choice getting the hell out of Ontario.. If you want to run BC/AB it won't take you long to find a job here.

    You might get better opportunities if you advertised yourself as "Healthy and energetic" rather than "sick and tired". Just sayin'.

    I like your screen name but in this industry you're going to be lied to.That's the name of their game.There's no perfect company out there no matter how hard you look.There goal is to make money and they will lie to get the drivers.That's just how it is and always will be.

    If you are looking for a perfect company, make sure you pack a healthy lunch!
    With that being said however there are many very good companies out there, but if all you look for is fault then all you will find is fault.
    Listen closely to the person hiring you and pay attention to his answers to your questions. Look at their fleet, ask questions of people who are employed there. An old trick was to check the parking lot to see what the employees are driving personally. If they are driving junk then the take home probably isn't making ends meet.

    I find many drivers that overstate their qualifications and almost always fault the company they just left. They hand me a nine (yes 9) page abstract of nothing but bad news and every infraction was because of the truck, the trailer or the dispatch, never their own. Yet they still chose to go out with no hours or obvious defects. It's your license, protect it.

    Abstract isnt bad, certainly wouldn't have an issue getting work. But then again who knows I've left alot of jobs in the past 20 years. Now I'm to old and just want a job that pays and a bed, BC is actually where I would prefer to get myself too at some point. I'm divorced and need a home and have always the West.
