    Got Florida yard just before midnight. Still don't know if I got to sit on load or drop it. Delivers Orlando 02:00 Thursday. I'd rather go home for a reset.

    I worked for them for 7 weeks over 10 years ago...we didn't get along and we came to a mutual agreement that raven wasn't the company for me. The dispatcher that I was assigned to was there only a short time before I got there and she was still learning the system and had too thin of skin for my brash unedited attitude. The owner of raven, or should I say the boss of raven is the same guy who owned Silver Eagle that became a part of Arnold Tsp...before USxpress bought them. I wouldn't work for him again if they doubled my Poly pay.

    Shop quickly fixed the faulty ABS sensor on trailer. I did end up coming home to reset. Got a PP picking up Thursday afternoon in Auburndale, FL delivering Saturday in Auburn, IN.

    First time ever for me to reset at home. Another appealing draw to Heyl is how frequently they get drivers back thru Florida. I didn't even ask for a Florida load. I plan on staying out 14-24 days at a time and then take 3 off.

    Hey xlsdraw, I'm looking to come over to Heyl. I know they run the east coast but what about NYC in particular? Also do they have the Ipass for the tolls? Thanks.

    I really don't think we do too much in the east. We do have prepass and ezpass. Make sure you are in one of the few hiring areas. They have a detailed hiring map on their website. Touch the state and it gives details. I doubt NYC.

    Just shut down at 02:30 at the Roo in Ringgold, Ga. Nasty storm tonight. Ran far enough that I can stage close to Consignee tomorrow near midnight.
