    My husband didnt need a trainer as he has two years trucking. He was the one who came from car hauling. He has complete is first load there. We live in pa. So far it seems like everyone there is nice from what he is telling me. Hopefuly ever three loads he gets would come to pa so he can stop by the house. Good luck with your new job

    I don't know about the kids things, mine are 29, 28 and 24, when all three went away to college it was like a whole new world opened up for my wife and I. For the other things, like anniversaries, birthday's and so forth, that will come with proper planning on your part in requesting your time off. All kidding aside, my wife had a rather serious medical issue that required Dr's, specialists, biopsies, and numerous follow up appointments. I sat down with operations, explained what was going on and they made sure I was home when I needed to be for as long as I needed. For that I will forever be indebted to the company. I had an issue, they stepped up and they allowed me the time I needed.

    Man I remember sitting in the TA restaurant using the phones. Skype, and now FaceTime, makes it much easier and enjoyable when the family needs to see me.
