    I started in '84 drove for company called Silvey Refrigerated out of CB IA, long gone, closed in '90. I left the industry for 10 years to raise my kids, came back in 2001, took a refresher course with Prime, but like a lot of idiots, I bounced around a lot, lucky to have the job I have.

    Well it's been a while since I put words to thread, but all is well, had a bad brake chamber on Wed, had to go to Alsip IL to get it repaired, ended up spending the night there, then I had to head to Napoleon OH, for a load of Campbell's Soup, which was destined for Omaha.

    Got some new Volvo's coming, guys are missing out.:D

    Unless Company B heard something I didn't, the new trucks are all Freightliner Autos...

    Ok - Just checked with Mike - CompanyB is right, we will have some new Volvo's too! Probably around the end of October/Early November.

    Come join the party!

    Yeah, tell me about it! Also, I guess this is as good of a place to start this announcement:

    New Drivers lounge should be up and running in about 4 weeks. Might be 8 weeks before the showers and washing machines get hooked up, but its coming!
     
    CompanyB Thanks this.

    Now that is good news, I can shower before I go home, or if I am between runs and stay with the truck.
