    Bunch of orders came through to go out to Illinois, from Ft. Morgan, but up until then I stayed in my region

    Got hired with another company to run regional. Orientation is wednesday. Technically the pay is the same but the miles are more steady according to other drivers I've talked to, so there shouldn't be nearly as much of this "one good check, two bad ones, or two okay checks and one bad one, etc" kind of stuff. I'll be running the southeast only, and can go home as often as every week if I want, or I can stay out 2 weeks. Since I live right down the road from their terminal here in Lakeland I'll be seeing the house quite a bit. For me those two are the biggest perks. I've been sick of OTR for a long time.

    I'm willing to run local for irt until Monday if I'm needed. I'll clean out the truck monday night, take tuesday off, and that'll be it for me and them.
