    Thanks for the feedback everyone. And rocknroll I am glad you like the name...I put some thought into it and that was what I came up with.

    Anyways to continue about DSI, their office and main yard is less then 2 miles from my house. And they were a company that only took drivers with at least 2 years experience, but I guess with the new regulations taking effect they have worked out a deal with the college, that they will try to recruit a couple of drivers out of their classes. They are getting some trainers certified and lined up to start taking a couple of new drivers every 3 months. Well after talking with the guy in charge of hiring, I found out that they will pay me 32 cpm while I am training instead of paying me a flat rate like other companies do. Also I was told that they do not even let a OTR truck leave the yard unless they have at least 2500 miles scheduled for it. So I know I will get good miles starting out. They also have good benefits and hometime. They guarantee at least 2 full days off after every run. Also very good news. The kicker really for me and I imagine there will some jealous people out there, but the lady in charge of loads and dispatching is someone that I have know over 20 years and is the sister of 1 of my best friends. So I imagine that after I get settled in and used to things, that I might be able get a favor or 2 every once in a while.
    But if this falls thru with DSI I guess I have this prehire pack from WERNER sitting on my desk (but I really don't want to go to Werner). But I will keep everyone informed of how everything goes.

    That's what the last prosecutor said, but he couldn't present sufficient evidence to convince a jury and make the felony charges stick... :biggrin_25523:
