    Come back here? They’ll start you out at .58 CPM split. Our operations is still run by kids. Since you left, the biggest accomplishment we’ve got straightened out is now we have unlimited toilet paper in the bathrooms.

    You know there's things I haven't always agreed on with abilene,but they've shown me this past week,that there a stand up company.

    Will be taking this week off,to try to get things straightened out.

    Trying to get something worked out,to where I can get home every couple weeks.

    I too have my issues, but like you said, when it comes to personal issues and what life throws at us, Abilene is second to none. Take as much time as you need, take care of your business and give yourself the time you need. We’ll be thinking of you and keeping you in our thoughts.

    Wow, you have TP for your bunghole! That is quite the perk! I still carry a small ziplock with wet wipes in my back pocket. Once you go wet, you never forget...

    One thing we loved about Abilene was the Volvo 860s. The table in the back was great, we used it for breakfast and dinner every day. We are driving a Mack Anthem now, it is small, but fine for 4 days out at a time. It has good seats, and rides way better then a Freightshaker. I hate those things.

    Hometime over. Heading out in the morning. Drop and hook up at the Savannah yard and bring that to the Richmond yard. Truck is due for a service, and I have a check engine light on. Trying to get my head wrapped around the insanity I’ll be in the next couple of weeks.

    Hell no. Knight/Swift holdings don’t have enough money in their checking account for me to ever get involved with that brain damage again.

    WHAT???

    Did the Drivers stop stealing it or they just gave up the fight and put 37 rolls in each bathroom every night?
