I keep hearing about these massive driver shortages but here I am sitting in Shelby, IA doing nothing instead of sitting at home with my pregnant...
Ha, I got a message the other day asking if I ever consider being a trainer. No thanks. I can barely keep myself together. I did teach English...
It's the new load planners...from Heartland.
Yeah, it's an option...guess I'm just not flexible on my driving style...I don't know. Basically the other company was "regional" if I wanted but...
Yeah, make sure you find out that info. I think I still would have come out ahead and gotten home every weekend but it was reefer, running very...
Yeah, the other company just didn't fit right now. I couldn't deal with all the insurance, etc, at this point with my wife being pregnant and...
Oh, Purina in Crete? One of my first loads coming back to Millis and going through an existential crisis while doing it. Not bad except for the...
I highly recommend Millis. You roll OTR, you'll make $60k your first year. Plus they pay per piem if you want. And excellent training in...
I've been looking at Kingpin too. I guess I can try and ask my former company if I can park in their lot that I always parked in when I worked...

Great, gate at the west Allis yard isn't working so I can't get to my truck...well, I did climb the fence because I left my bunk light on...but...
I'm still at a loss over the fuel program/idling. I didn't get any message detailing it. I got those messages a month back about the problem,...
I don't really understand the log laws. I'm off-duty, I'm not working, I'm not going to move that truck or do anything with driving that's going...
Good question. I'm like you. I'd be checking!
I still haven't gotten a message about the new idle policy. I wonder if they only sent it out to guys who will have an issue with it? Nope, not...
What's the new fuel bonus policy? I never got anything about that. Yeah, company I'm looking at pays percentage of load and the guys from Millis...
10% raise! But after this week of 5 hour driving days and just sitting around that amounts to maybe $50? Oof. Millis, good place to start and...
