JBS Carriers Greeley Colorado

Pickin up at Coors tonight and headed to St. Paul, MN................that is if the world doesn't end first!

 

How many miles total for the week Doc?

 

Waved at ya'lls Cactus plant as I went by. Gonna be in Denver tomorrow myself. Can't deliever till 2200 tomorrow and am only 6 hrs out from Loveland right now.

 

I will throw this out, as for training, Out with a trainer for 6 weeks, then back to the Greeley terminal for a written test, driving test,trailer knowledge test and a Qualcom test. If you pass, then out, if not then back out with trainer for 2 more weeeks.

 

I did 3465 Paid miles friday to friday, not bad considering I had to wait on a driver ( who was 12 hours late picking up load for swap) and the receiver in Manassas, Va was pissed beyond all belief that I was 3 hours late due to homeboy being 12 hours late to me. I waited in Habstuad( north of evansville IN for 12 hours and I delivered the load he was supposed to in Olney IL, then took off to deliver Manassas.
With all that BS I still pulled off a decent week, and I am at home and Have a Load out on Monday going to El Dorado for tuesday night. Pretty good start coming back.
I have seen some slight changes but hell I will work with it, First change is More Newbies who could care less about other drivers, and Many more Drivers here who are new and clueless as all hell. I am sure FOXFIRE can attest to this as there are some real big flub ups who have no clue at all and cost those of us who do time and money...
Well I got the shelves reinstalled in the Pete, ( which I am drawing up simple plans for anyone who wants to do the same) I have gotten the "blessing" from the Shop as these are not permanently attached to the truck and are simple and very helpful for those of us who like to be comfortable in the truck, I will take some pictures and post them later....
I have cleaned my butt off took the seats out, removed the rubber mat scrubbed the mess out of it, reinstalled it all sanitized the truck as my wife says from top to bottom, oh I have OCD about being clean just me I guess. Tomorrow clean the truck, from front to back on the outside, degrease the frame, fifth wheel, and wax the truck, along with polishing the wheels and putting back in the chrome I had in my other truck..
Well I hope all is well for all my other JBS driving cohorts, and be safe out there look forward to meeting you all one day...

 

wax the truck?

 

Doc, I am interested in your self design, always looking for any inprovements in living conditions in my tractor.

 

I woke up to a nightmare today!

No it wasn't the Zombie Apocolypse we were told was coming.................I woke up and had SWIFT trucks on both sides of me!

It was a miracle! Not a scratch or dent on my truck...................maybe that means the world is ending after all!....................

 

I thank the die is set...I would add additional pay for the trainer for the extra time...that is the reasion training is about to take a big hit..as soon as next week

 

Who else would parked next to a reefer
