    I have sat through 2 34hr resets the past 2 weekends. Once because customer didn't receive over a weekend and second customer doesn't ship over weekend. Be cool if I was home. Now am in Stockton waiting to get loaded later and go to LA. My AC doesn't work and it is 85. TOOOO HOT. I was enjoying our protracted spring.:biggrin_2553:

    No extras. FYI, living in the area you do, I would suggest talking to Con-Way drivers. You will probably get better home time with them. However, if home time is not a concern and making $$$ is, then Crete may work for you. I'm an O/O and live in San Antonio, inorder to make good $$$ I stay out 3-6 weeks at a time. This time frame also coincides with the length of time I was told I would be out due to the area I live in.

    Hey jdrentzjr... do you think your advice about the Austin area would Aldo be true for Houston? Thanks! Also thinking about Ft. Collins, CO.

    I'm not sure Con-Way has better miles. But Crete does pay better. So if you are ok with being out 3-6 weeks I think Crete could be a good fit for you.
