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

Whew... and here I thought it was going to be a waste of good materials... whew

 

Nope, the Kitchen Countertop industry isn't gonna have a material shortage

Ya really headed to Calgary?

 

Yup, and I was just planning on grabbing my winter gear on my next home time at home... oh well... guess I will pick it up after this run.

Paper work is being completed as we speak.

 

Well J.B. bbq is their way of saying you're just a one night stand...now on the other hand...if you get steak or lobster..makes the pounding more meaningful lmao

 

Hope the clothing Ur carrying is ok for high 40 temps per 7 day forecast

 

Oh I'm good to well below freezing... just not as fully prepared for anything too serious as I would prefer to be.

@all... chain laws are in effect, correct? I best grab a set if they are... been on the east coast with this truck so it's not ready for the northwest.

 

I've said all I care to say on this subject. MD is a nice guy, we just have MUCH different circumstances. I agree to disagree.

 

Crap. I've already started designing the mouth and voice mechinism.

 

Hello again, Abilene crew. I am packing for orientation that starts Monday, and as I mentioned I am a brand new CDL holder, so I will be moving into a trainer's truck shortly.

I am planning to come up I-95 from Jacksonville to Richmond (I live in Ocala, FL), are there any issues with that route from the recent storm or otherwise? I am thinking I can easily drive that in a day, but will most likely leave on Saturday afternoon just to be safe.

I was told to bring 2 weeks worth of clothes, does that seem like a lot? Or does it just mean 3 changes of underwear in trucker terminology?

Also, how many of you carry work boots? I was told that I may need them or may not. I was also told not to bring food, as the trainer would be stopping at Walmart when we hit the road. Maybe it would be better to buy a cheap pair of boots there if my trainer decides I need them. Sound like a decent plan?

TIA, and looking forward to meeting you guys! Oh, when is this BBQ?

 

Maybe they'll make you a plate full o' food, and keep it in the 'fridge.
