    RC, definitely count me in. I can't say enough good things about that man. A true shame.

    Maybe that should be directed to @RebelChick

    Well, I'm currently sitting in my own truck. (1550)

    Met my DM and was asked some basic questions and that was it. I did mention that I would like to be routed to the Midwest so I can get some home time. I haven't been home since leaving for orientation on 8/24.

    Since I'm located in central Illinois, they don't think I'll have a problem getting home when I request it. (Every two weeks I mentioned to my DM)

    I was told no loads at the moment, so I could be here at the yard until this evening or sometime tomorrow.
