    I'll still be around.... Looking forward to the change and hoping all is for the best.... Transam has it's faults but for the most part they haven't done me wrong.. Wouldn't recommend it as any more than a starter company though.... Also HTQ did they combine the kings last 2 checks?

    In my last post I wrote that I was worried I would not get an assignment until tomorrow, when the planners are in. Credit to TransAm, a good load assignment did come last night. Friona, TX ----> Southern Florida.

    I am in Friona now but unfortunately production here is shut down for the holiday. Will have to wait until tomorrow afternoon to roll with it.

    No, they didn't combine them. It worked out for us though .....the last check from TransAm was deposited on the King's first week with the new company so we didn't have a week without a paycheck.

    probably not the first holiday weekend you have been involved with
    it is always a mess depending which shipper or receiver is off when

    You're right. I had to sit for two days for one big holiday last year (don't remember the one now). They had sent me on a pick-up but by the time I had got there, everyone had gone home for the holiday. That is why I was pleasantly surprised with the load coming through last night.

    I made it to Kingdom City. Lots of TransAm drivers up in here. The rain is ridiculous. :(

    Happy birthday George!
