    I'd say it's time to park that truck at cedar rapids and jump on a plane or bus.
    Go home for some home time and fill out apps.

    Don't do that, you'll possibly be hit equipment abandonment if you do. Even though it's your team driver that still has the truck

    He's running solo right now anyway as per a previous post. Next time he is close to a terminal (any crst terminal) he needs to park the truck and take a ride on greyhound. And when I say close I mean any distance that does not cause one to run out of fuel.
    Of course he's not going to. We can't even convince him to fill out a few on-line applications... Nothing so far makes me think he will grow up and be an adult.. Which is a sadness as untill he does he'll always be with a company that will walk all over him. This is not an industry one can be meek and expect to be happy with one's career.
