    0230 wake up 1 hr too early Man i hate that.Nuke my old coffee.Well should get their tonight or #### close. 24 hr drop an hook.del sat.About 575mi to tobyomma,Pa. can go home when mt. No calling in no bs. Just go.Did not run trk last night.Almost hot in here.33600 lbs so no need to scale.already got green light on prepass.Love that little box.Oh ya you can wash trk (basic)only once a month on the road. Just get a P.O.Now when I started here it was slow for me.They dont babysit you.When things are good I dont talk with my fm maybe 5 min a month. You got to tell them when you want hometime.Or they will run you FOREVER.Also they have LTL fleet. make 2or 3 times the $$ home every week.Lots more work . Choice is yours.They fired a fella for going 400mi outta route to go home without asking.Had a minor fender bender in snow.(not his fault) car spun an hit his trl.1.5 days late for del. Now he slams the co. here.In Miami the other day at nursery . o/o or driver in o/o,s trk drops his trl in door goes to ts. comes back hooks an goes. well he failed to PIN the trl. made it about 20 ft. trl fell .Only to frame rails.He was lucky. he only tied yard up about 1 hr.Always LOOK at jaws.Well 0315 gotta go to work. Be safe Keep The dirty side down

    Well, I'm reading. I don't work for FFE but I'm reading. Actually...looking for a company to give ME a refresher. I've been off for a few years...about seven, to be sure.
    Trucking is in the blood.

    You ought to look into the FFE Driver Academey. Its not a driver mill. They put out Safe Professional drivers. Have alot of people here with CDL's and some people that had a CDL. The training is top notch. If you can't pass their evaluations, which are tough, they will send you home. Which I think is a great to weed out the people who are not serious about being a Safe professional driver.
