    I just started working for Quality...just looked at the web and as an O/O would make good money...(been follwing this thread)...all the way...one thing not mentioned was breakdowns..cost lots of money...broke down in detroit ( river Rouge)...9 days...asked for room ..got it for 4 of the 9...the rest is idling in the cold freezing temps...day and night. company dirver gets 150 a day and a room every night...i got 4 days in a warm room....because i think they felt bad for me...no pay no demurge even when i spoke to the terminal manager...they're really good people (wont mention names or locations)...Im dealing right now with personal issue of sleep apnea which i was diagnosed pos and have the cpap now...the one good thing i can say about my terminal is that they are devoted to me ...a driver with his truck, which is more than i can say for many others. been home for a month now taking care of this sleep thing..lots of bills piling up...have to go to same doctor 250 miles away where i took the inital dot phys....am selling my trudk on ebay...got three potentials waiting on bank approvals...cant wait any longer...have to roll...i can roll with any company....I choose to stay with clete trucking out of channelview tx...franchise of Quality Carriers....by the way, their all Franchised is what i Heard...who cares...I have faith in this operation owned by Buddy Woods...(nothing but good thisgs said about this man) with a little teeth pulling, I can get these dispatchers to run me well...I believe in them. PS---The company covered my breakdown expenses...what else can be said...Joey
