    I think Efon saved the day for all of us. The conference call with john and Ruby going over dispatch and loads really showed its all about Pta and they really try to keep you moving here. There is no special fleet or poor planning. From what i interpreted poor planning falls on driver if your not running. I see preplans stacked on some drivers. It works for me so i can go.home more lenghty weeks out and still get by house for resets. I am glad i waited to jump ship for the perfect opportunity and not just any of them. Thanks to Efon and Vickie we should have growing careers here. How many.can say that.

    I was just at Birchwood Foods in Norcross,Ga. on Monday, went thru the house Sat&Sun then back home for hometime on Monday, taking a week off. We go to Atlanta a lot, Daniel and I were both down there Monday. Hometime will not be an issue.My career has definetly grown.

    We have a run to Stockton CA but I think it is one account right now. Not sure how it is going or if it will turn out to be more accounts down the road.

    Well i got my truck situated and now at transwest waiting for them to fix fuel guage. It reads E, i also went ahead and replaced that trip hazard vent out the bottom with a flat one. The other one was introduced to me last night unaware it was there while unloading. It would work great but not in that specific location. I hope to get out of here today. Its now been over a week since driving and i dont like advances. I look forward to meeting everyone and learn a little bit from everyone. I look forward to hitting the road this weather has me light headed sometimes. Elevation i think but my blood pressure is fine.

    Sounds like everyone got what they wanted. Glad to hear it. We dove straight thru to Ms terminal to get our trucks. Verge rode with us. We swung thru Little Rock and grabbed his wife, he was missin her bad. lol. We got to the terminal and suprise, they didn't even know we were coming for the trucks. Communication?? LOL. We ended up getting a White Coranado. Looks great with the full skirting. So we had to wait for the trucks to be cleaned:biggrin_2551:. That took 3 hours, ok, my kid could have cleaned the truck better than that.lol. Momma will do that better before we load anything. Before we leave the yard we were informed that we had a load going to Spokane, WA. Great!!. Well we didn't get home till 9:00 last night , starting getting things ready mind you we haven't had sleep since Wed. night. Get up this morning and have a broke water line at the house, dig, dig, dig. I am beat. Called Robin and explained everything going on and can we just start out Monday. She said thats fine. THANK GOD !!
    Really enjoyed the orientation in Denver, nice bunch of people. Don and Ruby were great doin there jobs. The other 3 drivers were great. Hope to run into you all sometime, if I can catch ya doing 65mph..LOL:biggrin_25518: C ya !!!!!!
