Running with JCT, Part Deux

You know, even though I'm planning my exit I'll have to admit I don't regret anything about my experience with JCT. I'm not a fan of a few things, #1 being stuck at .90 cpm. But overall its been a good year and a half so far.

I came here primarily to get experience with refer and the western states and I certainly got both!

 

Right now, probably anywhere from $800-$1100 average weekly. Been with jct over 6 years.

 

Where you heading to?

 

Don't know yet. Been doing a lot of research trying to figure out the best landing spot.

 

Same here. Sitting in Bakersfield, picking up produce load heading to ochelata and then I'll be taking the truck back to sapulpa and heading off. When i wanted to get home they got me there, or if I needed to get into a shop or the two times I declined a load in the winter to the northwest I never had an issue with my DM about it. If they had company drivers I would stick around, L/O and O/O isn't for everyone, so back to a normal W-2 position I go.

 

Well, this sucks. I get here to the consignee in Keasbey, NJ. I go to check in only for them to say you ain't scheduled til tomorrow.

 

ew that sucks, especially out there since they dont really believe in truck stops in jersey

 

Yep. If i would have known this, I would have stopped and restocked my food and drinks. Good thing they have menus for several places that deliver here.

Uodate: Turns out that Tyson changed the delivery date and failed to communicate that to JCT, so they could tell me. Which means I'm now unable to pickup my pre plan and they have to find something else for to pick up tomorrow.

 

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven. Wish you could stay but God Bless you in your future endeavors. If you should decide to return; I'm pretty sure JCT will still have the light on for ya. Be Safe.

 

OK. It's time to make my head hurt. I'm gonna open a new folder. Fuel Miser Club. The ONLY way you can succeed in ANY place in trucking where you have to pay for the fuel is to control the Fuel Expense. So . . . fuel misers have fun!!
