    Good luck on your way out of CC. If you ever drop off by there, send me a pm as I'd love to put a name to a face.

    They say 10-14 days but you can always swing by thew house under a load and if it all works right you can grab a night or two in bed with your better half, like I am this trip, which won't count towards you time off. Oh, thanks for following along with my adventures, it's because of folks like yourself that are interested that I keep plugging along.

    Got my first drop off in Hialeah at 8am this morning. I'm home and will get my second one off in Cape Canaveral in the morning. I spoke with dispatch this morning and was told I'll be loading tomorrow. Here's a picture of my new set of wheels.

    Johnboy,
    I will be heading home Thursday, but I will be on I 75 and the turnpike, but I will give a shout to every Abline truck I see, you just never know.
    Glad things are working out.
    Take care,

    Larry
     
    JohnBoy and Jrdude5 Thank this.

    Thanks. Still in with the learning curve though. First real test will be payday on the 3rd. I figure if all goes well with that then I'm doing things right. I also think if more people comment about my last company and decide not to hire on, like a few have already stated, then I guess that 2 cent raise they saved on me will come back and bite them in the gashole.
     
    The Challenger Thanks this.

    Hey there Larry, I don't know where they will be sending me when I get my last drop off in the morning, but keep your eyes open for me. Be safe my friend.

    Sounds to me like they might not last much longer.
