Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

When I was a account manager I shared a office with a couple people and drivers would walk in all the time to get paperwork. I didn't have a conference room available as well. I would always take a walk with them around the warehouse or outside in the yard if the weather permitted. That almost always gave us the privacy to speak freely. That was the solution I came up with that issue. No one deserves to have issues aired publicly. Plus it gave me a way to get feedback on how I was doing my job and if I could make improvements. I cared about the drivers and wanted know if I could do anything to help even with sick kids or family members. Sometimes just being a soundboard helps others out. I tried to do this once a month with each driver. Plus it help remind me that they humans just not numbers to move freight.

 

No worries... I am easily confused...

 

Oh? I bought a Canadian Shot Glass... but now I feel bad that I didn't get anything for Safety.

 

Must Remember This!!!

 

Yup, thanks for being a team player and not hogging all them miles for yourself...

 

Welcome to Planet Abilene... LOL

 

Someone will be along shortly to quip "that's trucking".

 

Are you in a volvo?. First trainer had a Volvo with about 4 warning lights on dash. He wasn't bothered in the least.

I would roll until the truck physically showed signs of having issues.

 

I hope you declared that to customs.

Dont worry I will tell safety it's from both of us.

 

Ok, I take it back. You CAN park at the Walmart in Monroe WI. The person I talked to last night was apparently unaware. I called to see if I could park to shop and lo and behold was told I could park for the night. So here and listening to my Steelers on the radio since I can't get them on tv.
