    The farthest west I have been so far is Wisconsin, and that was one time. Other than that, I haven't been west of uniontown al. Just saying.

    I hear all this stuff about it being "the season" right now in Florida for orange juice. I have brought back loaded tanks to the yard that were gonna be going all over the west coast. Only place I ever go when I pick up OJ is pembroke ny. Total BS.

    Booboo wanted to know how things are around here, that's how it's been for me. The money is decent, no problems there. Just want to go somewhere other than the east coast for a change.

    If i were you, i would be a thorn in there side. Everytime you get empty, ask for something going west "the squeaky wheel gets the grease"

    Yeah I know recruiters never lie. That's why I came to y'all on this one. The other topics have touched on and then beat on so Ive gotten to hear all about them. Where I can take hometime is something that needs to be told in truth. Thanks y'all.
