    ########. NO company I ever worked for fired me 1500 miles away from home while I was parked in a gravel lot with nothing in sight and then offered me no help getting me and my belonging home. And did it over the phone. That's why I took their truck from Charlotte NC to Memphis TN. I told them put fuel in or I will leave it where ever it runs out. But I wasn't leaving that truck in NC. Going to the bus without my stuff or my dog, who by the way is my service dog, Thank You very much. In Memphis I was able to meet my husband, he drove from Iowa to get me. My husband who is suffering from mouth cancer and should never been expected to make that drive. CFI saftey are ex cop bullies who hate dogs and don't give a shot for the human beings driving their nasty trucks. Oh and I've never been put in a dirty apartment or a dirty truck. Most everyone I have drove for have the trucks cleaned at least minimally before the assign them to New drivers.

    So very true. I always disinfect. I have a GREAT company to be with now. So I just want to agree with you. I'm happy with who I drive for now so CFI did me a favor really.

    OK please do not dog me for fetching this old post. I suffered thru 11 pages of dog jokes and still have not heard why CFI is bad other than an excop in safety and a dismissal from yellow light runs. What I have learned so far is if your truck is alongside the turn lanes when the light turns yellow run on thru. Otherwise we are supposed to be professional and k b ow how to see the lights will be changing and be ready to stop.

    All the discussions of they hate me because is not from a mature professional. They have to pay the insurance so I have to drive by their rules.

    If there are any CFI current or recently left drivers I would love to learn more on how I can max my loads and keep the wheels turning. I find out this week if I got the spot out of Joplin.

    I am graduating in a couple weeks. Pushing 58 but I drove a long time ago. I am on hold with a recruiter, but I also know 4 recent hires were dropped 2 for failing drive test there one failed first try at dmv. I will know by end of week if I got this spot. I already have everything but 160 hours and the road test.

    Love dogs but I understand the no dog policy in the office or shop. My rottweiler was well mannered but not all dogs are. Just one pissing on a desk or toolbox and every other dog will want to mark that spot too. Rottweilers don't leave puddles the leave splash pools.

    No frig and no APU is a no go for me. They expect you to live out of the truck so they should give you the means to do it. At least if they value their drivers.
