    Years ago I had a " special" customer in Kansas that liked to chew my arse when I got there every week .
    Last time I was there it was about 100 degrees and she got right on her broom and started wearin me out until something snapped and I jumped out of the trailer and slammed the doors telling her I didn't give a tinkers dam if she ever got her shat .
    Upon my arrival back in Omaha I was told I was fired by another woman whom I despised .
    Uniforms flew out the window of my pick up as I departed the lot in a cloud of smoke .
    The next day I was employed by hill bros and not long after pms express was bankrupt..

    Because I'm not afraid to speak up for myself. I have a mind of my own and can think for myself, trucking companies hate that.
    As the term goes I have no problem calling a spade a spade. From dispatchers to company owners.

    Lmao! No I just don't have a problem with calling a spade a spade as the term goes.

    Honestly, As long as you have a good driving record, Jobs are a dime a dozen. Now when you throw the issue of jobs with decent bene's into the mix, They start to seriously dwindle. You can usually be hired by any Friday and truckin by then. ( as long as you have a clean record).
