    Picking up in Chattanooga in the morning and going right back to Houston. Lol will be home Wednesday night and trying to get it relayed to a local driver for the Thursday delivery. I would rather run on Thursday than sit at the consignee all day.

    So far are you happy with SNI as your first driving job, especially going straight into tanker? Gotta give you credit I didn't have the guts to do that myself! I hope things continue to go well for you and that you are enjoying it.

    That's good to hear, sounds like you really do have a good attitude about it all. Too many new drivers just whine and complain and throw in the towel but it looks like you are able to take the good with the bad in stride! Hopefully they get your trailer fixed soon. Next time you're in Carlisle give me a yell, I'm up there a lot, dinner or lunch is on me.
