Millis OTR journal

Seems like a lot of these places are designed by someone who has no idea what they are doing. What the purpose of the facility is.

 

I tell you what: It seems like everything I learned about backing does not apply to these 40' trailers. It's frustrating.

They're nice moving forward though. I can take this thing almost anywhere that I can take a car.

 

One thing I learned from tankers is that learning to back them was like starting over because even though the tandems were about in the same place the end of the trailer wasn't.

 

Following up this super fantastic lucky to have JD load with a 2 stop lumper load. Wonder what I’ve done to earn such an honor.

 

Maybe the feedback from your last trainee about not being allowed to install a stripper pole in the truck has something to do with that?

 

Smith Transport now part of the Heartland conglomerate.

 

Heartland Express Acquires Smith Transport, Inc. and Related Companies

 

I came here to post that, knowing deep in my heart that someone had already mentioned it.

I wonder if Heartland is going to let Smith keep all those 389s they have.

 

That’s what we have been told.

 

Nice. I've always wondered how they determine who gets those. I figured it was a safety or a seniority perk.
