    it'll never be as bad as what I experienced at May trucking and I lasted of the year and a half. it's much more easier here.

    Well much thanks everyone. Im not being a butt or anything.. But what exactly takes so long for orientation? I guess videos and how to work peoples net? Does yalls qualcomms have gps or wifi built in to them? Do you guys run through brokers or solely through dispatch?
    At least if anyone needs to know anything about here.. I dont think ive left a rock unturned. Im getting exicted to come out but sad as well.. Ive never spent christmas alone.. So hopefuflly i can atleast get a load to keep me moving those few days. So where is everyone?

    Just getting your paperwork done, review what is expected. The ones doing orentation are busy trying to their job plus orentation. It is a hassle but when it is done you will not have to go throu it again. No GPS, wifi and we do both broker and dispatch loads. Just try to have fun and do the best you can do out here. But most of all be safe. Give ya a month to get use to things and you will be doing alright.

    10-4. Yup, i plan on keeping my safety record as good as i can. It seems ill need to stay diligent on trailer maintenance up.. This csa2010 and psp score are really making it imperative to have safe and legal equipment. I hope for a coronado but if not, a pete is my jext choice.
    I noticed a picture of someone who had a cornado and it had chicken lights on it and the trailer tjey had, also had chicken lights.. Is this normal or just maybe he was a owner op.. Although it was a cornado.

    csa2010 is not what is advertised.it only effects larger companies who pay a lot of attention to it.they are the ones u want to avoid anyways.smaller companies just look at ur driving record.when u come over to fre its smart to have a gps.u cant always reach someone for local directions.if u let us know ahead of times i am sure someone one the forum can help u out.we do do a lot of chicago at times.the company uses pc miler on routing pay
