Heading For Little Rock! Maverick

Precoat

 

What's up guys, sorry I couldn't keep you updated, T-mobile's reception is awful at the Maverick Inn. To make a long story short I just moved to the Galloway today!!! The June 3rd class was the largest class in Maverick history with 39 people, but we are down to about 25 now. My most memorable moment is climbing Mt. Maverick, I'm sure many of you made it over with ease, but I am 6'2" 370 lbs. and was the first person to go. To everyone that is considering Maverick, I can safely say that I am sooo glad I chose to come down here. All the staff and truckers that I have met have nothing but great things to say and are so helpful just like all the truckers that have started and contributed this thread. On a side note I talked to my dad today and told me he talked to a Maverick trucker today that had been driving for them for 10 years and he told my dad the he loves driving for Maverick and he wasn't going anywhere. I think that speaks volumes for this company. If any one has any questions I will be glad to answer them. Oh yeah they have changed the curriculum for orientation, now the classes are split by students in one class and experienced drivers in another.

 

I've had 4 knee surgeries all on the same knee. Have been told that my next one will probably be a total knee replacement. I am running the flatbed side of the house. I have pain from time to time. I just try not to over do it.

sorry for the double post couldn't delete it

 

was it a blonde moment or a brain fart? lol

 

Thanks brother. I've had four surgeries on my knee as well, the last one being the replacement. But everything changes when you gave it replaced. You literally have to learn to use your knee all over again, and the bones are never the same because the metal is drilled about three inches into your femur and tibia. I can never run again, which is why I was medically retired from the USAF, and small tweaks can cause major pain that lasts for awhile. I have no doubt that I could do the tarping and stuff that flatbedding entails, but at some point you have to look out for your health. I'm only 33 and don't wanna screw up my knee anymore than it already is. Hence the reason I am seriously considering Maverick's T/C division. Just wish there was more info out there about it...
