    Great now we have a forum stalker!!!!!!!!!! lmao j/k. Not sure what time we will be around down there. I'm hoping 1bad can go and just swap out trucks so I don't have to go down there. God I hate going to that place. But if I go I will just step out and wave I'm the one with long brown curly as heck hair standing next to the one usually in a black snap on hat or red ga hat. Should be in our truck we finally got it to pass emissions today!!!! yay!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway we look forward to meeting you.

    My company got lost again.
    They think that Mississippi is in the OH region lol.
    Sat around half the day in Columbus MS waiting for a reload. Finally got it, but I am in no real hurry. So I am at a Pilot in Memphis for the night, then heading back to OH.
    Needed some miles, so did not go home this weekend. Not a bad week so far, even with sitting for 8 hours.
    They had actually gotten me a load yesterday and had me preset. Then when I was getting ready to go get it they took it off, said it was already asigned to another truck. So only 380 miles today. Got 500 plus every other day since Tuesday though, and will go 500+ tomarrow, so all is ok.
    See ya soon, battery getting low from catching up.

    Well they got my load rescheduled and will be dropping it Monday morning. Got a preset going from Lexington, NE to Emproia, KS so am being worked to the house. Woo hoo. Hope they'll bring me b up to the yard in Olathe long enough to get some resupplies. Need checks, logs, expense sheets, and tri paks.
    Broke down and purchased 24 hrs of wifi from the TA. Boy was that worthless. Their just as slow as ATT is when your not in one of their 3G networks. No video watching going on here which bums me out.

    BCC,

    Welcome to the Central thread. Central does not allow pets at all except for those who are grandfathered in. I believe it is one day for one week out with a max of four days home. Anything else needs to be clarified by your dm. If I got it wrong widow, jess or 1bad can explain it.

    Ran into DeaconScott at the Conley Internment Center this morning before I left for my delivery. Was a very nice fella for a forum stalker.

    Scored me a 6 stop christmas tree load going to Florida, with a 99 20 miles from family down in Florida. Guess thats my christmas gift from Central. Still trying to hook up with my brother who is stuck waiting on a load 100 miles east of where I'm pre-staged on the west side of Atlanta.

    From my limited perspective:
    I started with Central and have no major complaints.

    My brother started with Stevens, lasted 3 months with them and moved on to Knight. His major complaints about Stevens could have it's own Forum Thread. While he rarely complains about Knight.

    There's good and bad in both. Either way you go, do some time and then move on when your options begin to open up when you've gained experience.
