    Yes. Kent is a recruiter. I had Andy. Kent is a nice guy he dispatched me when my dispatcher was out. It normally doesn't take long once they can confirm all your old companies and all. Hopefully you'll make it. What division is he wanting? Dump, pneumatic, or hopper.

    I think it took about a week for all my stuff to go thru. But I did it the first of November and elected to start next week. Andy was my recruiter and has been awesome so far. Very up front with everything.

    Andy called me over the weekend to see if I needed anything as I was heading to Little Rock. I really liked him. Kent is a good guy as well. I'm probably swapping from End dump to Pneumatic. Wanting to try something new.

    See if they can setup you blower to be hyd drive sense you already have the wet kit for the end dump.

    Yea mine and 2 others are the only trucks left at my company out of like 50 that still have drive line blowers. With the wet kit blowers it gives you more flexibility to running other hydraulic stuff like belt trailers, end dumps, and what not. Im not a big fan of them cause the couple that Ive used Ive stalled out the blower when the line plugs up. If I end up with my own truck I will do a drive line for the blower and then if need be a second pto on the other side of the trans for a wet kit.

    If they're not as good I'll check get a regular blower. I don't want to have any extra hassle. We have Tuttle (I think that's how ito spelled) blowers here at Oakley.

    Tuthill.
    If for some reason you get to choose blowers I recommend the 12 inch Gardner denver. Blow circles around a 1050 tuthill and do it quieter.
