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

The 8 hour break stops the 14 hour clock, the 2 hour break does not stop the 14 clock. And yes you can combine the 30 min break into the 2 hour break.

 

Or did she replace the guy? I sent in my app on Monday and sent an email to him. You would think that they would contact a driver with nearly five yrs experience and a good record.

 

Hello,

The new driver in question is me.. I *really* like the NE spot (not gonna lie, an extra $.10 is pretty nice,) but pretty much anything y'all would care to pass on would be much appreciated. I'm new to the industry and, as I told MD, am not exactly certain of the questions I should be asking...

Hope to hear from you!
TRD

 

MD: Check out the thread here in this Forum:

@Rawlco did a great job explaining and providing resources (actually, quotes to the official regulations).

 

Send me a PM here with who you sent the email to and I will be glad to touch base with him to see if we can encourage a response.

I do know they seem busy lately and one of them has taken over the Orientation duties as well so they might be a bit swamped.

Glad to hear we might have another one helping out too... Always a good thing.

 

Welcome TRD... Glad to see you joining us here. Most of them are the friendly kinda folk...

I have learned a lot from this fine group of people and trust you will as well.

Again, Welcome
... and Stay Safe,
MD

 

I was told we couldn't get blue beacon truck washes...that is what the wash bay is for? Did you have to get someone's permission?

 

Yea

Yeah, me.

 

@TRD ... Drop JohnBoy here a PM and he would be glad to discuss your NE Region questions.

Thanks JohnBoy

 

There... I fixed that for you.
I guess they just like me better...

Ok... Ok... They don't really like me better...
Well, they won't admit to it anyway...

We get one put on the truck after each PM.

Or I slipped one passed someone...
But dang it ol' 1405 is looking fine...
