    Per North Carolina Website:
    (Confirmed by me sitting right in the heart of it)

    I-95 CLOSED BETWEEN KENLY AND BENSON

    I-95 is closed in both directions between Exits 87, Keen Road, to Exit 97, US-70 due to a crash. The road is expected to reopen by 6:30 PM.

    The main issue's i'd like to see addressed are...

    1.Higher pay
    2.Lack of communication on the company's part
    3.Lack of preplanning
    4.Would like to see a different region every now again,but can't complain to much on that issue,they run me pretty good.

    Have past the six month's mark,and can honestly say this company has been a good fit so far.

    I'd appricate it for whoever attends the meeting,could give a overall summary of what's happening.
     
    KD5AXG Thanks this.

    Depending on the information shared, a public forum may not be the best way of distribution.

    I have never been the meeting type either, at least at work. Waste of time that could be handled much differently and efficiently. Complentry food or no.

    Word from my interior informant is that I won't be attending the meeting. I'll be heading back west as soon as I drop this busted ### trailer. Which means that I have a question for the group:

    When a trailer tandems won't slide, what tricks do y'all have? I tried to swap glad hands, couldn't make the glad hands fit. Should I invest in some good wheel chocks? Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
