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

Will do. I'm based in Oregon tho. Not sure if they'll hire from out here.

 

@jarhead0311 lives in that area I believe,maybe he can chime in.

 

Yeah, I moved to WA and they get me out there consistently for home time and usually keep me out west for the most part. I stay out five weeks though and take five days off for medical stuff at the VA. We do have a team that lives out in ID too, I just swapped trucks with them. They should hire you if you have a good record. You gotta call Abilene, Trish in particular and keep on it as she doesn't usually chase ppl down.

 

Well I canceled a few years ago and hopefully they are not annoyed with me. I did notice how hard it was to get Trish on the phone. Will find out Monday. Thanks all.

 

Im sure there won't be any grudges as you are prob not the only one that has cancelled. Just keep trying and you will get through.

 

Well, load is being rescheduled. I honestly thought this was a dry load loaded in a reefer and every time I get a Walmart load that says LUL it turns out to be a drop so I figured the same thing would happen this time too. So I left wytheville 3am....Dairy load of cheese.....called receiving manager to try and get in early but this load was too big to fit me in. 48 pallets and she said it had to be broken down into 100 pallets....no go on getting in early and out before 14 was up. Hopefully they get a 12 noon appt if Im stuck sitting as that is earliest they start receiving or even a midnight since it is going to be a few hours in the dock with having to break 48 pallets into 100 pallets. No parking issues either way when done. Will see when DM gets in. They prob won't be happy since was supposed to get back out west again....

 

I've never driven tho but have all my endorsements, TWIC, etc.

 

Yeah, you won’t need any of those here.

 

Ya, was told I didn’t want to go out west as there wasn’t much coming back East... seems your loads reflect that as well.

 

I thought you were starting with Schneider.
