    Yep. After a struggle, out of the blue, JB Hunt intermodal offered my "Unicorn" job to me again. Just started and I couldn't be happier.

    62 mph and Lytx Ai inward camera is an annoyance but not as bad as my previous experience with it at McLeod. Pay is bumped up so that's good. My shift is 5 days a week, Friday thru Tuesday and make a living too. Yay!
    Icing on cake. Over Thanksgiving my house had an electrical fire and there was no heat. I wasnt scheduled to start until after the freeze hit and JB said, "That's no good!" So they put me up in a nice motel for a full week before Orientation date. Sweet!

    make sure you keep a ball peen hammer with you, with containers you'll need to tap on something every now and then. if the rear pins arent locked with about a 1 inch gap,just slide your tandems to the back and that will close that gap where you can lockem.
