    That was very nice of you to help him out like that... But don't worry... We won't tell anyone you were nice... So your cranky reputation will not be tarnished.
     
    RebelChick and scottlav46 Thank this.

    Just went and got this trailer that's been sitting behind a Publix empty the last 2 weeks. My first order of business when I head back out? Get this lock cut off that was left on it from the contractor. I sure hope everyone is right and this trailer is empty. For now, it's staying parked and locked until the 16th.

    see us old guys learned work ethic back in the 60's
    i have never asked anyone how much i am going to make
    it always works out
    this company only has 10 company trucks and i was highest paid driver in 2014
    then i took 8 days off a month in 2015 still was over $65000
    i really enjoy screwing off just have to know when to do it

    So I have dropped applications at the tanker company and Abilene as a back up should the tanker not work out. Phase 2 started...;)

    Planning on calling a recruiter tomorrow, but have a few questions to ask here first.
    Is it possible to make $65k first year at Abilene?
    What is the health insurance cost for a family? How high are the deductibles? Is the insurance any good overall?
