I'm trucker that's been out of the loop on company driving jobs the last 7 years and don't know if it's time for me to get out of it or WHAT? I'll beat my head against the steering wheel driving a slow truck, electronic logs, & I live in PA so northeast crap runs. Please tell me trucking hasn't completey went to ####. The funniest thing I've done the last 7 years was call CR England and they told me they were only hiring lease operators, I was calling for Co. driver position but kept an open mind and ask what they had to offershe told me .90 - 1.50 a mile. I asked if that was with fuel surcharge or without can you beleive she said what's fuel surcharge as I was trying to explain she just wasn't getting it. I guess they assume they tell drivers they'll give them a truck and they jump on it. I'm thinking this is a shady company & just a company looking for bait. But they all seem this way to me someone give me some insight on what's going on out their PLEASE I'm losing my mind.

Hello,
Newville is a nice area. I've been in Carlisle for 13 years now & never been to the car show. But it's the biggest thing that goes on in Carlisle.
