    FYI, if you are including me in "y'all", I'm not "p'd off" at all. I'm as happy as a Lark ;-)

    I don't think it's a secret that they're an all entry level co. I met a driver today who was at a company dinner several months ago and that is exactly what the president announced. As for the other thing...I guess you'd have to draw your own conclusions.

    this just isnt my year... already.
    once again, im sitting in a parking lot, derated engine. I woke up this morning, i had 1/8th of a tank of def, which i dont like getting that low, but I know i have a fuel stop this evening that I will get to so I should be good, or if i stopped early first thing in the am. so i start driving, 4 hrs into the drive, light comes on so i pull over and let DM know. 2 hours later, light starts flashing, which seems kinda quick to me but once again, i stop and let her know. she opens the def at the pilot i stopped at, supposedly... since when i get to the fuel island there are no def pumps?? she says the book says there are, which has happened to be quite frequently lately, i dunno what book they're using but they need new ones cause I got out and checked all the pumps, which makes people look at you weird when they're fueling their trucks and you walk up to their pump like you're gonna jack them lol. so no pumps there, she sends me to another stop, which is a loves and i hate cause their pumps require the magnet which i dont have, so i sit there trying to milk the heck out of the pump cause she said only get like 2 gallons until layton..... really? didnt matter, the pump stopped at 1.2 gallons so I went to move and ask for more, turn the truck on and yup, stop engine, derated, catalyst level low, blah blah
    so here I sit

    Hell when I tried to give my 2 week notice nobody would answer their phones or return my calls, so I made arrangements at another company and then told my dm over Qualcomm that when this load gets to Denver (delivered on a Monday and I arrived at yard on Saturday) that I was cleaning out my truck. Nobody tried to talk to me about what was going on or try to get me to stay. Told my dm the truck would be in front of the front entrance to building, locked and keys inside the office and I was taking pictures of fuel gauges/mileage and condition of truck inside and out incase they tried to say it wasn't how I left it. Got my last check in the mail next week with no problems and still never heard from anyone about me leaving.

    Maybe they didn't like you. When I gave my two week notice they were convincing me to stay
