Con-Way Truckload Drivers: What's Your 20? (2014 edition)

Cargo hows it going buddy. I was wondering what happenend to you. As well as you ol Rooster.

Currently in PA about to get my day started and heading for Kentucky. Going threw the truck killer of I68 and I79 thankfully will be 22k in the box.

Also some of you may not know but heartland express bought out Interstate no telling what going to happen, but I have a bad feeling about this.

 

Dang, Heartland buys Gordon, Heartland buys interstate... I can see the next headline Heartland by XPO... There's supposed to be a good company to drive for, I don't know how the contractors feel... Don't panic yet CW

 

Few photos from the beyond trucking life.

Have the #1 prospect Moncada in the house tomorrow I'll prob be there couple hours early to see em take infield and stuff. Kinda cool when Eric Davis or Barry Larkin comes looking over your shoulder . My video room is right behind the dugout so players come in there all the time to look and ask stuff. It's neat seeing the behind the scenes. Even sat in my underwear juggling the Skippers baseballs in his chair & ate all his cashews! mwhahahahahahaaaaa....

I'm amazed this camera still works I bought it couple years before leaving Conway.

Didn't think I'd like it to be honest from coming off the field. Then you realize you are making more than the umpires working the game lol. xD

 

But yeah felt pretty good helping Stuart Fairchild get drafted in the 2nd round watching the ACC
Dude could rake with those metal bats. Bummed we didn't take Busby out of FSU and the Pirates got em him and the CF from UNC were by far the best hitters there. Next to of course our local guy that went 4th overall.

 

I saw the strangest thing today, a CFI truck pulling a USA trailer... Oh wait that was me.

My customer informs me that my trailer for my load is loaded on the USA trailer.. and no they can't unload it and load the stuff on my trailer they're closing in 30 minutes.

I called Joplin and tell him the situation and they said you can pull that trailer we have an agreement... After 7 years who knew

Funniest part about the whole deal is not a single CFI driver going the other way waved back at me... However two USA drivers did wave at me... I guess you could say I'm expanding my circle of friends

 

I'm at the Petro in Beaumont tonight heading to Laredo with a free plan out of Laredo going to Logan Utah... A snake bit as I have been lately I don't expect that deal to go through... Let's hear it for positive thinking... I positively don't expect that deal to go through

 

I'm heading into work after a 0645 oral surgeon appt tomorrow having no idea where I'm heading. They took all my preplans that have been on me since Friday off of me today. Great way to start the week. Of course, if the Dr decides this tooth has to come out tomorrow, all bets are off anyway.

 

Good luck with the doc

 

I called it...USA Truck wanted their trailer to make the delivery themselves... I got to pearsall when they turned me around to take the load back to Gulfport ... Utah load unassigned... heading back, I get to Seguin and they turned me around to deliver it to the USA yard in Laredo... somebody must have woken up somewhere.

Sitting in Laredo...idleaire .. ahhh so quiet... leaving in the morning... one delivery in little Rock and 2 more stops in Peoria. Gave up 1600 miles in exchange for 1300 with two extra stops... pretty close to break even on a crappy deal...
