That’s the excuse, but the old man Bruce Oakley was a Navy veteran and just had a set standard. No Facial hairs, no ear rings, no shorts, no face or neck tattoos. Expected to keep truck washed and presentable.

I will start a new thread next week, don’t want to hi jack FCCs thread.

You do need a hazmat endorsement and a TWIC card. Three divisions Hopper, End dump, and pneumatic tanks.

I pulled my final load for FCC today, I left on good terms and quit the right and professional way by giving a proper notice in advance. I learned along time ago to never burn bridges in this industry.

It was a tough decision, but after looking at my year end numbers, and looking at my last three annual P&L statements it was a decision that had to be made. I know it’s been a tough few years for the industry and FCC was no exception, but my costs as a business owner continued to increase and FCCs lack of ability to compensate O/Os fairly made it a business decision I had to make.

Another factor in making the change is that my wife has been having some physical health issues, and wants me to home more consistently.

I will be attending orientation for the new carrier I am leasing onto next week in Arkansas. It will be a a different segment of the industry, that pays the owner operator very well. I will be paid more for empty miles than I made here loaded.

I spent over 7 years at FCC, and have not one negative thing to say, great people, and good consistent freight. I’ve made some great friends here, and wish everyone the best.

Once over at my new carrier and I get comfortable I will start a new thread. I thought about starting a YouTube channel, but I have neither the face or voice for public consumption.

Good luck with the new gig Jason. Knowing you the last 10+ years, you’ve done your due diligence and always better yourself. Keep us posted my friend.
