Just got accepted to Stevens Transport

Eating healthy and washing it down with coffee?

 

in the old days you did not have any schools that i knew about. just gave you the keys and if you made it back you were a truck driver. but back then if you had a problem someone would help you. now that i am retired if someone asked me what i miss the most it would be the other drivers, and for #### sure not the shipper and receivers. lots of luck

 

Make sure before you leave the wife's car has a fresh oil change, good tires and brakes. Make sure the house is safe and there aren't any major problems that will be up to her to take care of. Make sure she has the numbers to all the people in your company she needs to call if she can't get you on the phone when you are in the middle of nowhere with no cell service and a real emergency arrises. Doing these things will give you, and her some peace of mind that is worth more than gold when you are away.

 

Stevens? Who in the hadese would drive for them? And oh yeah..... I'm sho not H8N on anybody's new work pants; but when you get out onto the road as a driver you'll realize. New pants won't save yo batook from DOT. So welcome aboard!!!!!!!!!

 

I was accepted but haven't decided to take the plunge quite yet. Im waiting hear back from some other lines of work before jumping into this opportunity.

Congrats and good luck.

 

That's just his way of saying hello. Ribbing you a bit for the pants as well. Most guys that get hired on talk about getting an atlas, GPS, Bluetooth..... New pants is a new one. Don't let it get you down.

 

Honestly your list of things is good so don't let someone else get you down. There is nothing wrong with new pants either. Most drivers out here should invest in new because most look like slobs but not all just the select few. Another thing to invest in after you get your truck is xm/sirius radio. I love mine and roaddog trucking radio makes the late night miles roll on by.
