    yeah you're better off just stopping by or calling them constantly until someone answers.

    That does not mean that CC will treat you like that. I have worked for them 4 times and I can come back right now if I want to. My wife lives in the L A area and the dispacher almost always would get me a load out on friday to deliver on monday so I could spend sun night with my wife. Its not as bad as you make it out to be cause you have not had the priviledge of running to southern cali and dropping down to parris ca for a drop and hook and then run I 10 to Orlando for another drop and hook. Highway miles are sweet and the scenery of the southwest cant be beat.

    they have had to change their criteria because of the insurance company no longer letting them hire people out of school with no experience. if you have 2 years or more then send me an email to gor117@yahoo.com

    Yes I am an ex felon. I dont live as a felon nor do I think as a felon.
    I work for another company right now that is local and so I go home everynight and play world of tanks with my wife in california. I got married in June to a wonderful lady who lives in california at the time but will retire in 2 years and move here as she loves SC. we bought this brand new CRZ sports car together . I have experience with many kinds of trucks besides over the road trucks. I have 6 yrs exp with frameless dump trailers and 3 yrs with dumptrucks.
    5 months with a log truck with a knuckle boom and 1 year with a concrete mixer.
    I have come a long way from being out of prison and homeless in 2003.
    I own my home and land and I also rent out two rooms to truckers. Ozark motor lines tells me they will hire me in 2013 if I still want to run otr. and one more thing
    I have never been paid 10 cents a mile at carolina cargo.
    thats for students.
