    I really got to give it to our management team. They are on they're A game! As Ladyfire said, we are set up to run during the week and home on weekends. We do have some trips that will be longer but in that case your fleet leader will tell you up front. The company I used to drive for was like....SUPRISE! guess where your going? None of that crap here. I can't speak for all our drivers but many times my fleet leader will "ASK" yes "ASK" where I wanna go. Most times I get a choice of 2 or 3 loads. Last week I had a choice of 3 loads, Mass, Indiana or Texas. I went to Texas and came back and went to NY. I NEVER had a choice of loads with my other companies.

    Something i really appreciate at cargo..it's trucking, we all know things don't always go smoothly..but when they don't the fleet leaders, everyone of them, will do everything they can to make it right, fix the problem, get customer service involved, or get you home..it's clear that they care..imo, they are a great company and the things i have had problems with in the past, they are slowly changing..I'm leaving to try the o/o gig but as far being a company driver i don't believe there is a better one in the area.

    back to cargo. Or back to snyders in Lorton? I can thankfully say I will never be back at snyders. That place was awful. Cargo? I wouldn't completely rule it out one day. But I'm already on track to make 15 grand more per year at my new job and in general enjoying it better. Already lost 8 pounds as well from delivering furniture and spend a few nights a week in a motel room reimbursed by zenith.

    Have you taken a Darnell loAd to Jessup md? When I was still at cargo there were only two places I swore to myself I would never go again. Lorton. And Jessup Thankfully I never got asked to do either a second time.

    Just finished an application. I would really like to get home more than I currently do and still make about the same money
