i was never the butt of ANY jokes in class......mainly because everybody kept laughing at the fact that they couldnt understand a single word i said!!!! HAHAHA

Thanks AT. But no Powell isn't near I-15. Any other infor such as on types of loads, milage ect. Also without sounding like a winey nubie but how are they on taking unpaid leave. Been putting in for a sheep hunt for along time, 15 years, my number's got to be coming up soon. Its a once in a lifetime thing and I would need 2 weeks off. Think they would understand?

i've never had a problem getting home time although i only take the days i've earned i've never taken more then 10 days off, but im sure you could talk to someone if its a big deal.

You loads would be the same as most of us but youd do less LTL being out there, and allot of beer.

Thanks again AT. When you say you never took more days than you earned, how does that work? Do you earn so many days for being out and can save them? 10 days could work. I'm really leaning toward W/S because of all the good feedback on here from you drivers. I'm sure you noticed that doesn't happen much on here. Don't need a fancy truck just want to earn a living. It's just me and my black lab so there ain't much to keep wanting to get back to the house.

yes we get 1 day off for every 6 on the road, and you can save them for a longer time at home like i do.
