    Sounds like a good deal EZ! Hope it works as good as it sounds! But whatever happens, it sure beats sitting at home, doesn't it?:yes2557:

    It is a paycheck!....lol!
    I'm starting to get used to being at home...NOT GOOD!:biggrin_25521:

    I know i'll get back in the groove within a few days.

    I think i'm coming on board at the right time with these folks.They have only had the Charlotte terminal open about a year and are looking for a new property so they can build a shop.

    The dispatcher i will be dealing with sounds like a good guy.
    He still drives too until they get me and a few other guys in there.

    Always good when the dispatcher still drives, I use to dispatch air freight and It kept me aware of the drivers side, and kept me at odds sometimes with the mgmt when they got stupid or naive. It was a good checks and balances sort of deal.
     
    EZ Money Thanks this.
