    You mean you took the job, but didn't ask them any questions before accepting?

    Hey Iceman let us know how things go I have talked to several National drivers here around the truckstops close to the house they all seem quite happy there say plenty of miles decent lanes and good dispatch I know hard to believe all that good in one spot but it would be good to hear it from some one not so seasoned and a company man yet ,I am looking to go on board with them the end of march I am moving to Baytown so it should get me around a decent freight hub for just about anything,but would like to know I am making a good decision to go with them,not to say at your exspense but.............:biggrin_2556:

    Iceman? ( listening hard ) ICEMAN! ( opens door and looks around ). Oh well. I was just wondering if it is the same National that is (was) based out of N.J. I remenber they were one of the first outfits to surface in a large way after deregulation. At that time they were allegedly a ripoff outfit. Of course all the guys saying that were union guys. If that WAS true; I wondered if they had mellowed.
