    Thanks Deacon! Five weeks with a bunch of strangers could have made the experience miserable. It wasn't at all! Be safe in that pumpkin wagon.

    I ended up going to Werner. It was supposed to just be a year and done but things have worked out well enough for me to stay on for now.

    Boomer and BobMac, thanks for the kind words. Hope all continues to be well. Hope the new guys you are breaking in this evening are as good or better than us.

    Colorado,

    That's great...You know we read these threads and are sure there isn't a decent company out there. If you are happy then Werner is a good company for you. If I am happy, Conway is good for me, and so on.

    Be safe out there...they can replace the truck but they can't replace you.

    BobMac and Boomer,

    I got to Joplin for orientation, and Tim is already here and so is....wait for it....Clifford. You got it...the big red dog in a big red racer!

    He isn't talking much about what happened at Stevens, but he didn't go there and he landed at Conway. We met a guy from Stevens and he said the company was fine but the fleece uh er lease program killed him.

    Nothing against Stevens because it is hear say but I do hear a lot about these leasing programs and none of it is good.

    Read the fine print and be safe. Go easy on the newbies in your dorm. Did you haze them yet?

    BobMac, Boomer, RR,

    I have officially been given orders to report to Green Bay. I leave tomorrow evening and will spend a long 18 hours on a bus that will be an overnight trip. So I will spend my remaining hours at home working on the honey do list and hanging with the family.

    Deacon

    Good luck Deacon!!! From the two old buzzards at Conway. I don't think they have biscuits n gravy there but you should be able to find brats and kraut. Should have the same gastric effect as the Neosho Diner.

    RR, how are you old buzzards and the big red dog doing? You all should be about ready to head out with a trainer. Just checking in to see how all is going. I leave KCMO tonight to head to Green Bay. Excited and ready to go. Well be safe and watch out for idiots on the road.
