TransAm Trucking, Inc. - Olathe, Ks.?

OK and TX suck right now. Earlier I had a four wheeler swerve into me on icy roads with no turn signal. Thank God there wsd no vehicle to my left or else there eould be another truck in the body shop. M also grateful I didnt losr traction. It could have bern an ugly jack knife pileup.

 

He's in Illinois...coming from Texas...he got hit bad the day before yesterday with sleet in Amarillo.

 

Woah that's crazy! Glad that you're alright and that no one was hurt.

I have a simple rule: If it's snowing I ain't goin

 

We both have full time jobs locally that started on the same day. We are both doing real good. I decided to check the boards tonight, just out of pure boredom, and also to see how many drivers hubby knew are still there.

 

it is crazy that I can run along I80 in beautiful sunshine
while the rest of the country is a mess
this new company expects me to earn my pay
not sure how to do anymore
698 miles yesterday
750 today

It was nice to hear from you New OTR Wife and Congrats on the local jobs! God Bless!

 

Did somebody not do a pretrip?! Lol. Thats coming right out the exit gate. Woukd love to hear more details.

 

It's terrible, isn't it? I don't even know what to say ....other than to be grateful that no one was injured.....and that it happened where it did and not on the highway somewhere.

I am going to leave it on the thread for an hour or so and then take it off .....the picture is copyrighted. You all can link to the article before I take it down if you want.

 

Ive already blasted it on FB, lol. My load was ready when I got to Friona. Scaled in Amarillo cause Fast Stop was closed and Im glad I am still in the 660 because I would be over gross in my 680. As is, its going to be one of those crummy loads where you can only carry so much fuel. Im almost 1500lbs over on the drives and had to move the tandems all the way up. Glad Im not taking it to final.
