Calex Express....My New Home!

If there's any job in trucking that rivals driver turnover it's the Safety Directors position. Too bad about Joe. Now if we can get Jim back, who Joe replaced, then maybe the rapport between all the drivers and various departments can get back on track.

 

Hey Steve, how goes the new gig? I just got off the phone with Mort and he said Joe went home Monday night, sent an email in to Calex saying he resigned effective immediately and that was it. I hope he had another job lined up because he sure as hell burnt his bridge behind him on this deal.

 

Carlo,I should be loaded and headed back on Saturday. I'm not sure if we'll be seeing each other. What truck do you have? Your truck that I'm in has a few issues that need to be addressed when I get back in, I think an injector is going bad, the front end is completely out of alignment, and a few other minor issues. Did they say that you would get this one back, or are you going to stay in the one you have? They found the problem with my A/C and it will be ready when I get back. Be safe, I'll touch base with you after I get reloaded.

 

Sitting in Ontario at the great T/A East 21 hours into my reset. I have 3 drops to get off tomorrow starting at 5am 2 miles down Milliken Ave. I should be done by 2 then load either tomorrow night or Saturday morning. The trip out was fine, I took 80-76-70-15. With only 15K in the wagon it was an easy trip over the Rockies, if I was loaded heavy or it was winter I would have been on 40, but this way was the shortest and quickest, plus it was comfortable enough that I was able to sleep the first 3 nights without idling. Be safe all, God Bless!

 

Yes they are hiring, they are always looking for qualified drivers. Mort is still there, Brian is also. Joe pulled what an unhappy driver would, he quit unexpectedly via email Monday night. At least he wasn't under a load......lol
