    Well 4 weeks later and I think I'm going with a different carrier. Abilene still have not got back to me. I've called maybe 5 times. All different answers but not a yes or no. I can't wait any longer due to bills.

    How do you find the boredom of driving in Canada especially Alberta Saskatchewan if you spot a tree you will be lucky and bring plenty of food with you as you will pay twice for everything

    Bring food with you driving in Canada is expensive double to 3 times what you pay in the USA

    First day of orientation in the books,and must say I like what im seeing.Company has a small close feeling to it,something im not used to.

    The biggest thing for me is just learning their system,like certain macros things like that.Tommorrow morning roadtest,videos and meeting safety.Said we should get trucks around noon tomorrow.

    I'll keep everybody updated thanks.

    It never bothers me. I always enjoyed running up there. I'm very self contained, so buying anything is a mute point. I might buy a breakfast, then charge it and let the CC company deal with the conversion.

    Our system is pretty straightforward, if you have any questions just ask here. Good luck!

    I have no desire going into another country. I had my fill during the 20 years I was in the Navy.

    Got my physical all done, 4 hours of my life I will never get back. As I was pulling out of the driveway I called into safety and spoke with Stacey, as we were talking she was uploading a copy of my physical card that was emailed to her, to the state of Florida. Got the confirmation, so now I'm good for another 2 years.
