Calex Express....My New Home!

do any of you know if they hire out of Tallahassee FL or not

 

Tallahassee, my neck of the woods............On another note, JohnBoy I've got a question for you. I've read this entire thread, spoke with you quite a bit, and respect and gain knowledge from all your posts, but the constant I've noticed over the last almost 2 years is that you really enjoy your hometime and the consistency of being home every weekend. With this said, why is it that you make so many west coast turns, with these runs you're out almost 3 weeks, that seems to be far from the hometime that you enjoy. I don't post this in a deragotory manner, just a question I've had for a while, does Calex make an issue of you going west, or is it just something you enjoy doing every 3 or 4 weeks? I appreciate any response, and safe travels on the way back east.

 

Sounds like you've got a good mix going on, I think that's something I'm lacking, I've been doing my local deal for 3 and half years now and I have my fair share of variation, but at the end of the day it's always the same; go home, eat dinner, shower, go to bed, get up around 2 am and do it all again.........The company I work for has positions that keep drivers out through the week and home on weekends pulling long dumps, I've just not been able to break away from the norm and go give it another shot, I did it back in early 2010 but just didn't have my priorities straight, seems now I've got things in order and the idea of giving it another go is tempting, it's just hard to part with my local position and the kind of money I make, granted I wouldn't have to leave the company, it's just the fear of the unknown I guess........

 

Hey John, my problem lately is that I have been getting to my deliveries early and getting unloaded early which is sending Billy on a bit of a loop. It seems that Im messing up his process a little. I delivered this morning (friday) an hour and a half early at that paper place ( cant remember name) up the road. When I got to the shop, I went up stairs and he was stunned and asked what I was doing there. It was funny the look on his face when I told him Im empty. I went from Mtn. Top to Cap Cod 3 times this week and back to Mtn Top. Got good miles for local work. Well that's all, have a good weekend all!

 

well seems i might be coming back to the calex family.... in the past 4 weeks i havent gotten over 30 hours a week... the company we run water for had a accident and pretty much shut down...
