    My end of week is on Tuesday. They are gonna try to get everyone off the road by 1900 the latest. Ran up to Bentonville to get out of DFW for a while and they end up sending me right into it from 6008. Lol guess its my nature to help out Sanger! On my 30 doing a MTR load. Was a 3 stopper but now is a 2. All the pallets weren't ready so they will send the rest tomorrow. Me, I'm gonna stay on my flex for now until the time is right to get a full time. I like my Friday out. Had 3/2 come open for the B driver but its a Tuesday out. No thanks, I like my weekend pay as well. Congrats on your one year grabber and congrats to making it through orientation JH!

    Also had my first layover in a hotel last night. The apu blacked out and 26° over night in OK was not going to be fun. Luckily there was a hotel I could walk to. Apu is fixed, turns out the main wire was lose causing it to blackout. Most times when that happens its the mega fuse. Got lucky I did.

    Today is go home day. They want everyone off the road by 2000. Hopefully I can get done before that and head home to spend some Christmas Eve time with family. Merry Christmas to all!

    Same here. Gonna stretch this load a bit and hope they had good coverage on all the GM loads for Thursday and today so all I will have to do is my end of week when I roll in the barn.

    Merry Christmas to all and have a blessed holiday with your loved ones!

    Yeah the waiting has been long. I feel privileged to be selected to drive for Walmart. I can see why they end up with a good group of drivers they put you through thru steps. I should have orientation from what HR said around 27th next month. But I will be notified next week on the exact info they are waiting on one other driver. There should be 3 of us starting at the same time. Just fingers crossed on the 6/3 deal though so is my better half. She doesn't like the idea I would be on the Harley all the time....

    Do you loose your seniority when you transfer to another DC?
