    I would keep repeating myself over and over again if I didn't have the answers to questions being asked as well. I mean if I'm going to brag that I made a million last year hauling poop in my ####tank why would I share with anyone else the proof. Personally me I would do exactly this because I talk out my ### and have zero proof. But that's just me.

    But then you have to ask. Why am I even here. 16 pages and got more #### than answers. More tall tales than facts that you can make it. More running a round the bush than two squirrels in heat. It's because I'm an attention ##### I think. Hell, maybe I'm even a 16 year old kid who never stepped foot inside a truck besides te arcade game down at chuckie cheese.

    They have a thread on here. Keep looking! Heartland bought Gordon and it seems most of the Gordon drivers didn't stick around too long after that.

    As for being illegal, not sure what you are talking about. Nothing I did was illegal. Maybe if your a trainer at some point, you would actually know whats legal and illegal. Then again, I don't know how long you been driving, or if the laws have changed since I stopped driving. Everything I did was by the book.

    Here you go blackshack, the only surviving photo of me in a truck. Just for you!

    You can't be off duty while sitting in the passenger seat training. It's clear as day in your green book you can be off duty in the passenger seat for no more than two hours while not training. I don't know what you don't understand about that. Hence training trucks run 2 drivers. Because the truck will have to stop and you all sleeping between two beds? This is where I call bs. I've been through training with companies. I know my green book like the back of my hand. I know what's been legal since I started running in 2008.

    Work that detention pay.

    But ya man, I'm looking hardcore at so many companies right now, got like 50+ tabs open in chrome I dont even know what tab is what, they are so small.

    I am hoping to have all my choices narrowed down by the end of sunday. Then on Monday, start applying to the top companies in my list. So far, my list is Conway and Schneider so far. I'm also gonna apply for the creme de la creme UPS, but thats a hail mary at this point. By sunday, I hope to have at least 20 solid companies I can apply to, then take my pick from there.
