Heading For Little Rock! Maverick

Since i hired in i've been in RAT. Seems to me that you just kinda move areas ever so often.... will do a little east coast, then run from PA to Chicago. Then run like chicago to AL. but it seems like you just go back and fourth for a week... kinda north to south or east to west. Its not been bad. My dispatcher told me that they mostly use the divs. to help you get home on the weekends, and that it really has no effect on where you run during the week. or at least for the area we live in.

 

I don't know...the miles have been good but the home time has sucked. I'm not one to complain about home time (I know, I just did...but don't do it often), but it would seem that since I'm running closer to home I should get there more.

If I'm gonna stay out 3-4 weeks (which I don't mind if the $$$ is right)...Its a lot easier on my nerves and gives me less gray hair to do it where there are some wide open spaces and not a wall to wall F##$!&% traffic jam (I95 anywhere north of Richmond)

 

LOL i know what your saying!

 

Its been a long day...I'm too grumpy to think about it. Maybe its not that bad in the RAT division, time might tell...but this is not the way a person should find out that he has been put there.

I noticed when things changed...but I didn't know about the Qualcomm messages (RA and US), thank you guys for educating me.

Goin to bed...pissed off, tired, aggravated, and feeling a little bit like a number without a name. (perfect end to a perfect day)

 

When I was with them I had a buddy that was in the rat div. He ran pretty much like I did and I was in the US div.

 

Yeah, but we haven't met in person.

 

I'm not a RAT driver...just got a RAT load.

 

Oh...I missed that part of the conversation somehow

And...I was having "one of those days" the other day. I hope I didn't come across as being too much of an A-hole over the whole RAT deal.

I'm sure its not all that bad...just not what I signed on for is all.

And the reason my routes changed is just what I said it was...new hires (and I don't mean that in a bad way...glad to have you guys as co-workers), shuffling everybody in place...and I get moved around to fill in the gaps.
