    Yes. Pull into the driveway. The gate will be closed. Park close to the right curb. They'll open up about 6:30.

    I was under the impression that upon soloing out, I'd get .37 cpm. I got $100 a day when I was training. I was never told about .36 cpm. It took my first driving settlement to find out what I was making, and I was not happy at all.

    Honestly, the .37 cpm brought me to Abilene. I would have gone with choice 2 had I known. But, I'm here now. Duped and all.

    Delivered to Brookhaven a late Hill Phoenix load this morning. Now, sitting in Lancaster awaiting a live load to be delivered to Dublin, Va. If they don't hurry, I'll have to spend the night here. Sigh. Perhaps I'll get laundry done one day.

    Yeah same with me. They will start me out with $.36 and will have raise in few months. Training depends on stage. $100/day on 3rd stage.

    @Johny I will see you in the morning then! I met dady a while ago he's heading to florida :)
     
    JohnBoy Thanks this.

    You can to Abilene with experience so you started at 37 CPM... Those of us without experience start at 36 CPM.
