Seaboard Transport (Overland Park, Kansas)

Day 3 is in the books. I figured for this post, I'd share my day 3 video since it has pictures of mine and others' trucks...

 

OK. Been doing it for a couple of days. So I can give you some idea on how this gas goes.I find myself fueling more than I ever have. I can maybe make it a day with just one fill up. But I like to play it safe. This morning, I went and filled up to 85% in St Joseph MO. Then I stopped in Wichita KS and got 100% fill. I could probably make it to Fort Worth on that but to be safe I put some in at Norman OK.

The truck pulls real good. Real comfortable ride. It feels nice to do 70 again.

Still want to get into it a couple of weeks to give an accurate opinion. But so far so good.

 

Yeah...being lazy is not for me.

Maybe it is for you Dinomite.

They did tell me home 2 days a week. They also did not pay me all they owe me for week one.

You tell me that you are gonna do something, you better honor it. Especially on week 1 and 2. I made the decision to go back to do what I was doing. Its no big loss for me.

If you like to lay around in your truck and play video games or watch movies, Seaboard is the place for you. But if I am not working, I don't want to be in the truck AT ALL! So I called my old gig up and they didn't even want me to leave in the first place. I made sure I had a job, and then I left. This is simple driver management. I've hauled refrigerated before and I've hauled out of the meat packing plants. Very rarely I've had to wait more than 5 or 6 hours.

That is besides the case. They didn't come thru..and I'm gone. That simple. I have a life outside of a truck. Trucking ain't life for me and it does not define me. Its just what I do for a living.

Seaboard is a GREAT company who does not care about having a life. I know a lot of you don't get it..but a lot of you do. I don't have time to wait on them to figure it all out.
