    They normally have trainers at the ready. Just depends on current trainee load.

    A good 6 hours or more. (kind of lost track in the casino :oops:) lol

    I know what you mean about the ABS. I'll find out when I roll it around to the fuel isle to clean the windows and do a full check before my 34 is up.

    The air leak is as I suspected, in the tractor. Bled out in under 2 hours this morning. The compressor more than keeps up (for now). One more item for the list. I'll try to find it but I don't have a spray bottle with soapy water yet. Volvos are notorious for them especially in cold weather. That 670 I ran for W&S was a nightmare until I finally had the whole distribution block on the firewall changed out. A big job and not one they were too excited about doing. :D

    Do you usually have to take trailer home on hometime? Just wondering how I'll work out parking.

    Blaa!! . I just got hit with a sleep apnea test!! I will not be able to see the Dr. for the sleep test till 9/12!!!
    DOT scam of picking on us thick necked, doughy and plump guys! LOL My current DOT medical card is good till Nov of next year. But the company has their rules, so the Dr. have to see next month...

    That sleep apeana junk is bs. I can't believe Abilene has jumped on that bandwagon. I guess when my physical runs out.... so does my time at this company

    I just found out that my main pain medication isn't covered under our insurance. My life just got hard again.

    You should have the 800 number that we call for help on the road... They will tell you where to go or send someone to you if you are completely down.

    Ask @KD5AXG to take you up there a few times. I hear he loves it up that way and has been missing I95 the last few weeks... :rolleyes:
