    Dallas is good for Old Dominion and Oklahoma City was looking for line haul drivers for awhile, but guess they found them.

    Break is over, get back to work driver. Maybe try something different, flatbed or tanker. Maybe you just got tired of pulling a box.

    One of the biggest reasons for driver turn over, is that they DON'T do the research before hiring on. The more you learn, the better you can judge if you will be a fit, or a "misfit."

    Maybe he just got a wild hair up his bum. Or maybe he worked for one of the many "JERK" outfits.

    What you are seeing, doesn't really matter. IF I were in your shoes, I'd locate their nearest terminal, and GO SEE THEM IN PERSON.
     
    TripleSix and Chinatown Thank this.
