Central Refrigerated Truck Stop II

Wow! Three years already. I remember when you first came aboard.

Also, I did get your message yesterday but couldn't respond to it with my iphone.

I knew it was a 50/50 chance of catching you. When I saw you were on 287, I knew if you were coming south then you'd be at the truckstop same time as me, but if you were going north then I'd already missed you.

Next time you're driving past that exit, look for the retired Central Truck (1357) pulling a hay trailer. I'll be parked up front by the buffet line!

 

hold on there cowboy. your not a fleet jumper. your a money make jumper. more money= more $$$$$ done DEAL! your not job jumping from central to swift to cr england to roehl. etc etc. your still with central. i did midwest regional 1 month. i saw the money wasnt right and there money elsewhere so i went local. hourly pay is good. if you sit you get paid. it makes your job seem better. and weekends off is a huge plus. kraft local would be a good fit because your checks would be steady. not different each week because one week you have 1,200 miles the next 3,200 the next 2,300. your always around 60-70 hours a week.

 

Alright, I'll keep that in mind. Nah, my trainer has a Pete. I'd say more about it, but I didn't have all that many good things to say about him in the beginning... >.<

I'll keep on trying to get in touch with Rodger and hope I can get back on the road soon. It's true what they said in orientation, after being on the road, you start to get antsy when you're home too long. lol

 

me and you are two different people. i dont miss the road when i get back home. even if im off 3 days. however, i would miss the money if i do have to leave. lol. depending on what you do the $$ can be right. and ya stay on top of rodger. he usually doesnt answer. but he will answer you after he checks his voicemail. he told me dont talk to anyone and ill get your trainer back to you. and he did . actually not one person called me. like literally no one called. kinda annoying now that i think of it. as if they dont give a s****. but who cares. but if you do go separate (which with rodger you shouldnt) ways. go tanker. lol.

 

oh dont worry you will easily go local they need drivers.

 

Haha, don't get me wrong, I love being at home with my family-hence my desire to drive local in Pasco. I just hate sitting here and not making any money, or moving forward with finishing my training. >.<

 

Be careful if you go Pasco. I've heard they're requiring everyone who goes there to sign a 1 year agreement they'll work in Pasco for the entire year. If you do that, you're stuck with whatever they throw at you there. I've known one guy to go do it, and he ended up going back over the road.

 

I remember taking it a few times because I absolutely needed to get where I was going, and Cheyenne was shut down. It was a little slick, but not too bad. I think that both Colorado and Wyoming would keep up on it because they know it's the alternate route that many trucks take.

 

Hmmm, good to know, thanks for the heads up. Right now I'm focusing my efforts on getting back out on the road and finishing up this training. >.<
