Calex Express....My New Home!

No sir, this isn't the place that I used to deliver to. I mapquested it and it's not even in the vicinity of the mill. Either way it should be an easy enough drive to get there and get back out. Wish I was still down that way, probably would have been one of the better opportunities to run in to one another.

 

I found it on Google Maps. It's right off Hwy 27 across from the Airport.

 

Great minds think alike, I was doing the same thing. Looks like it's some sort of automotive/marine place.

 

It's 355 miles from the house up to Perry. I'll leave at 6am. I have an open window for the p/u as long as I'm there by 3pm. I deliver at 7am on Wednesday in Exeter. I'm hoping to go west this week. Louie was on vacation last week but did say the week before that it would be more than likely that he would be able to send me west this week, we'll see.

Right now it's time to decorate the house with Christmas lights. This always turns out to be an all day affair.

 

I'm getting into the mood to do a west coast turn myself. I'll soon have to let him know I'm interested.

 

Well Johnboy and Voyager after reading all this that you and others have posted about Calex I put my app in online about 5 minutes ago. I live in sw Florida and have 18yrs tractor trailer exp with a clean record and even a couple empoyee of the month awards (that are just a piece o paper). I make good money where I'm at but I have a lot of touch freight and I'm just getting sore and tired, need to get back to just driving.

 

I must have misssed it or maybe you guys didnt mention it, but what kind of pay is there? Never mind I just remembered Johnboy gave a breakdown of his earnings his first couple of weeks there. Have there been raises since then?

 

.
With most of the west coast drivers on the west coast our chances should be pretty good. I looked at my trips from a year ago and I did go west during Nov and Dec.

Good for you. Call into safety tomorrow and follow with Mort.

Raises are negotiated on an individual basis.
