    Lol, that didn't take long. Well hopefully they get back with ya soon. Things are good here at FRE. DeQueens isn't bad. Been there a lot with JBS. Finding that almost everywhere I go with meat here I have already been there before with JBS so makes it easier. Also been keeping track of my miles here for the first month. Looking at 12500 to 13000 miles paid for the month. Only time will tell if it keeps up like that. Also found out that the staff at the gate of DeQueen doesn't like JBS. They realy talk bad about the drivers but I told them it is the office not the drivers to blame. Just so you know. Not sure if they say anything to you when you pick up there. They mad that they had 12 JBS loads there waiting for pick up. But shot can't go get them until someone says they are there to get right. Either way good day for me. Pick up in Greeley on the 5th and did 3 drops today. Last drop a day early. Keeping me busy but like I said time will tell if it stays like this.

    Lol never know. FRE is a good company to work for so far. No complaints here for the mean time. Orientation is a hassle but after that it is all gravy. Good luck and hope to see you down the road.

    Ya seen the Pete's. Even got a look on the inside of one. They are getting hooked up with electric APU's. They have a few in the yard ready to roll even. From what I hear they are getting new driver by the boat load so don't see any empty trucks I the next few months. Just hope they hire good drivers. I have home time next week so it will be a few weeks before I head that way but if I can and see I few free boobs I will....lol. I am sure the wife wouldn't mind. Right ow sitting just north on chitown. Going downtown tomorrow to pick up and head back to Denver. Trying to get it turned into a drop and hook so I can get two more trips in before home time starts. If not I'll be home this weekend waiting to unload on Monday. Just have to see how this plays out.

    As I said in my earlier post, I would seriously look at them but I just can't go 6 mos. w/o insurance. Other than that they don't sound bad
