Finally at melton

well congrats man. Glad you got your first oversized load. How is your truck? Good condition?

 

Look at the bigger picture. One day when you go owner op… you’ll be doing these oversized loads with 120 miles at 20 a mile .

 

You know what it's good you got to experience a permit route. Texas permits are difficult to decipher and so now you can decide if it's for you. A lot of drivers don't understand the stress of curfews, routing, holiday shutdowns, construction rerouting, etc. I'm glad to see you're sticking it out at Melton. You're way past the worst part. I did exactly 2 years at Melton and I have no regrets

 

Oversized isn't worth it. I just look at it as a combination of helping out the company and/or paying my dues.

 

Some states are helpful and give you a map with your assigned route highlighted, others, not so much :/

 

that's one of the reasons it pays more.
