    Any opportunity I get to stop and eat there I do... Today it was for breakfast... First time.

    During the day the parking isn't too bad and I always get to park on the front row by the street... Then walk across the street to Tamarack to stretch the legs and grab a bite to eat.

    The best food I have found out here!!!

    LOL ... If anyone says anything just reply with;

    "Idle Time is inversely correlated to Wheels Rolling... If they keep my wheels rolling, I promise my idle time will drop." :D

    I tried calling 3 times but couldn't get hold of who I think is my manager.

    I kinda lost interest after that so decided to grab a shower and do laundry.

    My 14 is about to eat into my remaining drive time so may as well call it a day

    I already had that reply rehearsed. My % is over 50 last time I looked.

    I have a question regarding Abilene benefits and pay schedule.

    Regarding benefits such as health, dental, vision? Is it 90 days after someone is officially hired? Rates decent to put my wife and two kids on?

    Regarding pay schedule. I know it's every two weeks. My question is when exactly is that say for the month of August? I want to start getting things planned long range financially before heading to orientation.

    If by chance this information should be handled via PM, please feel free to message me. I really appreciate it.

    Safe travels.

    Benefits start 1st of the month after you have worked 1 full month. If you started today your benefits would start on 1st of Sept.

    Family medical coverage is $325 per pay period. Family dental is $28 per pay period.

    We have paydays on 5th and 19th of August.
