    I just dont see any reason to go back... I dont really talk to anyone there. I spent years just hanging around the house. I do get out of the truck some. I go back to the yard n hang out for a few. I know a lot of people lol I really enjoy watching the new student learning how to back a truck/trailer. Its a huge hassle for me to go home, due to living 50 miles from the nearest interstate, and no room for the trailer. Will be taking a few days off in the yard this week to handle business, and get my APU fixed, cause it just said "screw it, its too hot". Being out for long stretches is working for me right now. When it stops, Ill ask to return to the house. Just nothing to do there :(

    I work for Tru-Line trucking who is leased to Northland Trucking in Phoenix Az. and they are great for hometime. We usually go out from Phoenix towards the Mid West or the South East then back through the house for home time. They pay decent as well plus 100.00 for full tarp, 50.00 for xtra picks and deliveries after the first and additional for oversized loads. They are some great people to work for!

    Pape sounds like a really good company, wish I could work for them but I live in Ft Worth TX. Or I could move back to my hometown in Burlington IA but i do not see that happening, I might give Lonestar a shout since i live a mile away from them.
