    Countryboy,
    Long hair is not an issue at all, No one will tell you how to wear your hair.
    As for a "dress Code" just don't wear #### stained sweat pants to the receiver.

    The trainers Ask for Brian or Russell to be your trainer. Russel is on here Foxfire he is the person I would have train my wife, he is that good and I am not kissing any ### but when it comes to training someone right, and keeping them Safe those two will get the job done right.
    I can not speak for the other trainers I do not know them and frankly they ain't been here long enough lol.

    Seriously, Hazmat, or who ever in the hell you are Doc Holiday Miles WTF dude if all I get in two weeks is 5500 I raise hell about it.
    As should every driver a minimum of 6000 in two weeks here is the funny thing there are more drivers running those miles than are on here.
    Not long ago I believe Foxfire pulled off 8k in two weeks running SOLO.. But then again it is dependent upon the drivers ability after all the DM's do keep track of who can and will run, who does not refuse loads etc, and regardless of what they say it does matter, become a pain in the backsides watch your miles drop, refuse loads at a FORCED Dispatch company and watch your miles drop.
    Tankerman is getting run like he should have been from the start he is a runner as many of us are.
    Foxfire and I were talking the other day and my Idea of running hard might not be the same as others, but I like the pressure, Hell I like the money.
    Fox is trying like mad to beat my 11 hour record of 710, I am trying to pull 712 which is pushing the limit hard, but there are many who struggle to pull 650 in 11 which is ok they have to run within their limits, I know what I can handle and what My Bladder will allow me to do. Most won't run like I do 11 non stop muchless run 4 hours without stopping.

    I wanna say its the port down there and they got. a big dirt lot where you check in at but idk if you can overnight park there, I used to overnight park off one of the side streets off packer ave. Its like a mile from where your going I'd park on the same street as preferred freezer.

    I have no doubt doc an fox that you can do over 700 in 11hr i was real close when i was there but i think much over 712 in 11hr might get dot upset even with elogs,2 companys ive drove for told me never log over 730 in a 11hr period, an one was a 75mph truck an other was a 70mph truck, would think much over 712 in a 65 mph hour truck, dot wouldnt buy, but i kno it can be done !

    Just call me Seriously. Is it that hard? For all the 715 mile drivers who can drive that in 11 hrs. Who don't run into construction zones :). Who don't get stuck behind slow trucks it takes 5 mins to pass. I'm sure you all can do it. Kinda scary if you ask me.

    JBS advertises 2500 miles so 2500 *2= 5,000. Could people run more or less yes. Give me a break they give the good miles to the runners. They give the miles to anyone who is in the area. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION.

    Most of us don't need to run 700 miles per day, because it can effect our safety bonus when we can't find a place to park @ the end of that time. But I know Doc Holiday know's where he will park b4 his day is started. Its also easy to run your full 11 and then park on side of road and let your student take over. Then to find a safe place to park. Almost 2 years and my loads have never been that tight I had to do that. Of course unless I was trying to make up time for a load coming out of the plant or a shipper late. In which If it was late coming out of the plant and it had a tight delivery time. It will be late getting to receiver. I'm not super man, and they only pay me 40cpm.

    Also to say all these drivers who are not on here which is a bunch and they are getting 6,000 a week. ROFL funny how I never run into any of these guys. Most of them sound just like tanker man. Plus tanker man said he was doing good when he first came and he was on fleet 19 so I know you will probably say since he has your fm. That's why he is doing good. Whatever. But hey. Give me a J give me a B give me an S. Kick them legs up in the air and continue to cook for the office staff, and you 2 may get 8,000 miles in 2 weeks bahahaha. I love this job.

    Got into the shipper. Still no apt on delivery. Delivery is on a Saturday. So I have to make the call to receiver and apt is for 630am. Now I guess I can set my PTA. I feel like SRV. Speaking of super truckers. He must be with his new baby. Hope he lets us know everything is good. We miss you bro. If you happen to be reading.

    Thanks brother. Just checked the thread cause I was interested in what's been going on and to my surprise, I came across this post.

    Made me feel kinda good to know that people actually read stuff I post and care :)

    To let anyone who cares know, yes, I am off the road for now and spending time with my little one. Would be better if I was spending that time with him at home, but he had a couple problems and is still at the hospital.

    Was born 11/20/11 @ 1133 while I sat at the pilot in Indiana going crazy. Trucking definitely isn't for the weak. He's doing ok and we hope to bring him home in the next couple days.

    Can't bring my cell into the hospital, so I'm texting you all this from a parking lot in Camden lol.

    The experience will definitely give me even more substance for my memoirs but I do want to say J.B.S. did treat me well during the trying time and I got home on Tuesday the 22nd.

    Let me just say, almost 1700 miles in 2 days legally. IN to ChiTown to Bolingbrook,IL to Plainwell, to Souderton to my house with the 1 hour of sleep I got in Indiana before getting the dreaded phone call.

    SUPERTRUCKIN at its best!

    Oh, Mayson Elijah's his name, 6lbs 0ozs and 18 1/2 inches long ;-)

    Proud daddy's going back in to see him.... Talk to ya'll later.

    Stay safe out there on the road, ill be back out there with ya after Christmas
