    I will definitely look into the camera situation there. Thank you for the heads up.
    I did Feed Haul to chicken houses for awhile (the local job) the farms can be really
    slick and super narrow a times. Hope everything works out for him.

    My company may have a deal you might be interested in, if hometime is not a problem. We are out of Denver Co and Phoenix Az. Specialty haul, run LOTS of miles, get to some cool places, no BS to deal with at docks. Load and go, unload and go. Nice Peterbilt 579 trucks.Try sending me a PM for more details.

    That is a nice long list.

    A couple years ago Swift would have been included, and they lost many drivers because of it.
    Maybe other drivers should rebel as well against driver facing cameras.

    I think that is one reason you see a lot of them hiring all the time on Indeed.com

    Man you come back and redeemed yourself!! Thank you for that list I really appreciate it.
    I'm just drinking the kool aid about the driver cameras. I'm not a text and driver, Facebook and driver anything like that. But so many people claim, I was let go because I changed the radio bla bla bla that is had me worried.
    Seems like it's the way the industry is going though.

    Sounds like you’re on the right track.

    We worked at Freymiller about 10 years back - nice folks. As I did D&D Sexton there in Carthage, MO about 15 years back. Nice folks there too.

    The golf cart hauling sounds like fun.

    Good luck.
