    Well no longer going to El Paso. Went to scale out the load this morning before taking off. Was 660lbs over on the drives and couldn't move the tandems any further. They're gonna have someone take it back to get reworked. As for us, just chilling in Fontana for another day. Planning says it could be a minute. Im hopeful! But with it being Sunday...I have a very small sliver of hope.

    How is the company offered health insurance at CFI? Single coverage?

    It's Cigna. According to experts, it's one of the best. I hate all insurance, but it's a necessary evil. I was in cancer treatment for almost 3 years. The out of pocket was $8000 per year. Used to hit that mark by April, then the rest of the year was great.

    I am sure you can set out of pocket lower, in exchange for higher premiums. I chose 8000 for my reasons, you pick what suits your reasoning.

    Not much of an answer, but it's a pretty vague questions and everyone's needs are different.

    Petro in columbia SC has a freaking bowling alley in it! Had i known, I would have visited last night...middle of Sunday afternoon, it's like family day...my ship came in and I was in a truck stop! Should have been here last night.

    I don't even bowl, but you never know, wife number 3 is out here somewhere...

    On the bright side, had a very good pizza at Quaker Steak and lube...not a bad place to do a 34.

    I actually bought that a long time ago and ending up tossing it. Didn't work like I expected.

    70/30 copay after a nearly $3000 deductible. Free annual physicals and free preventive care.
    With my last job being in management at a hospital and being spoiled with amazing to say the least health care. I personally think CFI can do us better. At least a preset co pay instead of percentages... Dental is good. Idk about vision.
