I'm always red lighted in Oregon. In Washington, I usually get 1 or 2 red lights, but a number of green ones. Last trip I crossed 4 scales (made 2...
Anyone posting in this thread should assume that every word they post is being read by the office staff of the company. Anyone who posts here and...
I have a sleeper cab too. Actually, all the northwest locals do. We sometimes get caught out and have to spend a night in the truck. What kind of...
That's actually a tougher back than trying to stick the trailer in between 2 long nosed Petes. You have noting as a reference. It takes me forever...
My pre/post trips are always at least 5 minutes. Usually they're 15, or the two together add up to 30 (10 before, 20 after, etc). But since I...
If you ever get the brokered load about of El Paso hauling chile peppers in totes, and you go to Chicago where you're 4 blocks off the sky...
Well, this month we should find out if they're making any major changes. If anyone's in WVC after the 19th of this month, check and see if there's...
That was really smart of you. When the guy pulled over and immediately got out, I was worried you'd get out too. With people like that, you never...

As far as I know, they're always required. But if you're local, you can't get to a terminal to attend one, unless you work out of a terminal. So i...
Central doesn't have a school in Washington State. Swift might, but I don't think Central recruiters are sending people to Swift schools yet.
I am so glad that I don't have to attend an actual safety meeting anymore. Now, it's possible they'll try and get me to do one in November when I...
No idea yet, we have to wait and see.
As far as I know, Knight is run by cousins of the Englands. Wikipedia mentions it too. From what I can gather on the internet, CR England was...
Daughter's husband is the CEO, John Isaacson. Since I've been there, there's never been a woman in the higher up parts of Central. That's not to...
No, the Simon Family had Dick Simon Trucking, but when they sold the business, it moved into the Moyes family. The CEO of Central is the son in...
Oh, I'm sure in the future things will change drastically. I haven't seen Swift purchase a company and keep it intact yet. How long it takes to...
