    That sounds like some really decent mileage, sucks about your clutch.

    Nah S2B, just like the last guy the other week he wants you to tell him right now. The 800 pages on W/S here are too much for him to follow up on himself. Too bad a lot of the newb's coming into this business dont have a good head on their shoulders like Warp who knew how to do his homework from the get-go. Even if OTR doesn't turn out to be his cup of tea, I think you'll do real good where ever you go in trucking. Best of luck Warp.

    warp. that is awesome. one load down (even though it was only ten miles, a delivery is a delivery!) and hopefully many more to come! great work.

    I'd like to comment on that, I've had my CDL since i was 18 and have been talking to drivers and spending as much time a I've had available doing research on trucking since i was 14.

    I have been reading 1000's of threads on not only this forum but all the other trucking forums over the last 6 years. And I have read every post about w/s on this forum as well as every other company i am interested in working for. So when us "newb's" have questions that have been answered before that doesn't mean we haven't done any research!

    In my case I'm simply looking for more up to date info and don't want to sift threw 1000's of post looking for the info I think i read some where on a forum.

    id like to comment on this if i may:
    what i/we were talking about is the questions being answered only a page or 2 back, not 100+ pages...

    Welcome to the club Warp! Keep us updated to where you're at and how things progress for you. If it's anything like my first few months, you'll be busy and loving it. I heard on ATBS weekend on Road-Dog Radio today that freight is up nearly 200% and rates are soon to follow. Even flatbed is up, which makes me think, so things are starting to look up.
     
    Warpdrvr Thanks this.

    oh i completely agree about a few pages back, but i was referring more to his comment there as well as the comment he made to me on the other w/s thread about a ? that i had asked. Yes some people don't look around they just join and ask, but not all of us do that.

    Yes I would agree that it sounds funny when someone jumps into a mile long threads and asks how is this company. Most are new to the forum and we should just roll our eyes and tell them a brief statement and let them know to put the company in the search engine on this forum to read more and check the companies web page. Tell them if they have a more specific question come back and ask, also a welcome to the forum.

    Like S2B said, it's just a few pages back whatever you need answered A/T. Dont get upset, it's just that you newb's ruin some of these good blogs interupting with your repetitive questions over & over again.
