Driving OTR with US Xpress

Lol.. It's getting cold.. Everyone getting lazy.. Lol

 

Hey Wedge,
How's the book comming along? I ended up going with Arnold. Been with them for a little over 2 months and so far so good. been really busy so this is the first chance I've had to get on in a while.

 

Thanks Wedge, but I'm going to stick with Heyl for now. I really didn't want to go with a mega-carrier anyhow, but USX allows pets & I really liked the idea of having my co-pilot with me. I have done a lot of homework on companies and Heyl is by far my top choice other than the no pet policy, USX was my top choice that allowed pets. I was willing to take a .05 cpm pay cut to have my pup with me but there have been one too many hiccups in the hiring process and I have lost my interest. I guess the pooch will just have to stay home with the wife & get pampered...poor thing.

I very much enjoy your posts and will definitely keep reading. I will start a thread about my Heyl experience to keep everyone up to date. I will also keep Scarlett's name should I ever decide to look at USX again. Thanks for all of your valuable insight and your (and Snowball's) service to the victims of Hurricane Sandy. Hats off to you, sir.

I don't know about that coffee.......it might be spiked with spooky stuff!!!


Are you going to be able to get home for any of the holidays Wedge?
I know that you have gotten home time pretty much when/what you ask for in the past and just wondering since Thankgiving is less than a week away.

No doing anything special here. My family did our Thanksgiving last weekend (a lot of nurses and this way no one misses, you can go to the other sides with out conflict and no one is left out! We do the same for Christmas weekend before)
I have off a 4 day weekend
and will hopefully get some cleaning and decorating started for Christmas (inside outside permitting! but I still have the base lights up from last year...just easier to leave up)
Dave is hoping to get some home work done and spend some time in his workshop playing with wood! He has to write a paper (last one for English) and he is thinking of writing about the effect of NAFTA on drivers and regulation.

 

I'm glad you are getting home- a tough few days but nice for you when you do get home!

I sent Chris a PM on here. He said he is probably getting rid of his cell soon.....his post was nice. He really should put what he said about W/S somewhere so others (not just on his thead) can read it. The company really did do right by him.

Nothing special here Thursday. No turkey. Dave is gonna play with wood all day He got a bandsaw (93 inch blade if that tells you how big) so he is happy he can cut bigger wood now. My family did Thanksgiving already. I will make a ham or something and if the weather holds (high 50s) I am going to try to get lights up!

Stay safe on your drive home Wedge!!!

 

Hey now...what's this? I guess some folks might think coffee......Strong and Black......is spiked spooky stuff! LOL

Yeah that was a bummer buddy. I had my hopes up for meeting you but was let down again with someone to take my place with Mom. Still hold the hope we'll meet up again though. "If there's one thing you know, it's ya never know"
