    ugh... guess i'm gonna have to try and stick it out here until i can save up a little more coin then. I read about the BlackBerries before, but i thought they were used just for communication. I didn't know they used it to track you also.

    well looks like i might be headed to the river.. told the recruiter to process my application so we shall see what happens...was told there is no idling restriction so if thats true then thats good. Also told the west coast regional could get me home every 2-5 days so that would be awesome

    Choose your own routing on how to get there. The fuel stop takes a little getting use to but can be managed
     
    Rugerfan Thanks this.

    Your idle is tied to your drivers reward for speed. They have now started warning drivers with high idle.

    IRT at it again... sending letters home for you to sign listing all your log book violations so they can turn them over to DOT when they get audited. Just a little thank you for doing them a favor.
