    They are just too big for me, I want a bit of respect and dont like just being a number. You can do that out of either Tulare or Fontana. Call and talk with them at those terms and stay away from Phoenix and Vegas. Money isnt bad, but I dont like siting 16 hrs between loads ( up all day waiting and then run all night)

    hmm, that could work for me ... i do like to drive at night. less traffic. interesting radio programs. less headaches. so you'd have to leave the truck at one of the yards , either in tulare or in fontana, and then go home, and then come back to the yard when you resume?

    haha, so once you're invited to orientation i guess it's hard to not get the job unless you kill somebody or do some massively unsafe thing or if you fail the drug test..

    i'm guessing they don't care so much about not-so-smooth shifting as long as you know to up shift at 17 rpm, down shift at 12 rpm, et cetera..
